| | Photo: Neuehaus Studios | | Looking for a two-bedroom under $3,000? We found several of those this week: one with a private backyard in Bed-Stuy, another with an eat-in nook in Turtle Bay, and a few more in Williamsburg and Bushwick. Meanwhile in Greenwich Village, a gut-renovated one-bedroom with a view of Jefferson Market Library. | Listings Edit is Curbed's Thursday digest of particularly worth-it apartments for rent in New York City. Each week, we carefully sort through hundreds of rentals (across listing sites, newsletters, and Craigslist), keeping an eye out for places that are truly worth their asking price — whether that's an under-$2,000 one-bedroom (that truly is a one-bedroom) or a $7,000 Beaux-Arts townhouse with a spiral staircase and three functioning fireplaces. | Did someone forward you this email?
