Quite a few people are interested in Mayor Bloomberg's micro apartments?or at least quite a few people are interested in developing them. A total of 33 developers submitted plans to the Mayor's adAPT NYC design competition, which tasked entrants with designing a rental building compose of micro units averaging 275-300 square feet.
