Today some workmen came and replaced the fourteen windows in my apartment. This was quite welcome, as the old ones were not in very good shape and did not do a particularly good job keeping the elements out. (My landlord said that they were 110 years old.)
I took some pictures, so if you are interested in such things for some reason, here they are.
The upshot is that my rent will be going up $50/month, but I think it will be worth it this winter, especially given what heating costs are likely to be.

And here is its replacement:

Here's what the kitchen wall looked like after the old windows were removed:

Ah, much better.

No windows in the bedroom:
