After seeing the hidden portal behind the bathroom mirror, do you think the very, very creepy 2004 Dark Water movie shot at Eastwood, before it became Roosevelt Landings, may not be a work of fiction after all?

A more pleasant Roosevelt Island experience for our neigbor is enjoying a walk around the waterfront

No doubt about it - Roosevelt Island is very special.   

UPDATE 3/5 - Roosevelt Island Historical Society President (RIHS) Judy Berdy adds:

In many Eastwood apartments all kind of areas were found under the staircases in the apts. People opened the walls and made great storage areas, though no one I know found a whole apt.
UPDATE 3:40 PM - According to a Roosvelt Landings building spokesperson:
The apartment abutting Ms. Hartsoe's bathroom is being renovated, and the opening she found was created during that renovation work. Yesterday, our building staff closed the opening. Our staff reached out to Ms. Hartsoe and her roommates today to address any additional concerns they may have and is awaiting their response
