Size matters — in this battle of the Big Apple’s tiniest pads.
A comedian living in West Harlem says that his wee-sized space beats an apartment that went viral on TikTok for being the city’s “smallest.”
“When I bring guests over, we pretty much just hang out in the backyard,” said Ron Ervin. “We come inside for a minute to look at my tiny apartment, say, ‘Oh, that’s funny,’ then we head back outside.”
Ervin gave The Post a very brief tour Saturday to take aim at AJ Webber, a model and aspiring actor who claimed in December on TikTok that his East Village apartment was the least spacious in the city.
Ervin disagreed.
