To impress the ladies and throw epic parties with Miami Sound Machine blasting.

In NYC? Even in '80's the rents were insane. Architects don't earn huge salaries either.

I think that penthouse apartment made up that entire floor. Look at the square footage. They practically have their own solarium next to their kitchen. Even for the 80s, that was one fcking expensive place to live. 3 men were occupying that whole floor. Why not turn that whole floor into a cool pad?

It's much easier living with other people.

Look at the location. Even in the 1980s a penthouse apartment that large in that high a high-rise in downtown Manhattan would have been way too much for three regular people - unless they were trust-fund babies, millionaire children of billionaires.

Movie storyline I guess .

Consider also that NYC is super-expensive. That apartment would probably go for $5,000+ per month in 2010 dollars. Even if you have a good job, that's tough to swing.
I just went from living along to having a roommate, and it's actually very nice. I really needed help with the bills, and it's nice to have someone to hang out with.

why not? their aim looked like they were gonna work & party together & get laid (pay all together). BFFs forever. until Mary arrived . this looked like loads of fun, like a FRIENDS lifestyle.

Alot of people can afford to live alone, but its nicer to live with your friends
I know a bunch of girls who live in an apartment, but they all split the rent between them and share the bills, food shopping and repairs, chores etc
But they always have fun together and raves and everything so i guess its nice to live with friends
My sister is my friend and i want to move into a house with her someday because i love her as a friend and as family
I know we'll have lots of fun together

Better get the Ghostbusters to get the ghost of the little boy.
Who you gonna call!!
From the ashes of disaster, grow the roses of success

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice,
three men living together
mass hysteria!

it was a hidden gay agenda.
maybe they were bi. Tom Selleck does have that 70s' porn mustache
What about that time I found you naked with that bowl of Jell-O?
How about when Jim's Dad catches Jim Levenstein with his p***s in the apple pie
American Pie- not sure which one though
If a person with multiple personality s threatens to commit suicide, is that a hostage situation

What ghost?
That "apartment" was a sound stage in Toronto.
Any talk of a ghost would have to fall into the "Urban Legend" category.

Who would live alone in that place with a ghost lurking around?

It can be fun to have roomates, they love to party and they all grew together during the movie.

It was an 80's thing.
