The Apartment

First appearance	Pilot
Location	See Below

The Apartment is the apartment where Ted Mosby, as well as many other members of the main cast, have lived through out the series.

HistoryEdit

Everyone from the gang has slept there at least three times, Barney in Murtaugh, in The Pineapple Incident he slept in the bathroom, and in Blitzgiving it seems that all the gang have spent the night at the apartment. It is also been shown that whilst dating Robin, he was staying in the apartment a lot. Robin was Ted's latest roommate (Season 4 to 7) and Lily and Marshall were the original roommates (Season 1 to 4).

Thinking that Ted's toothbrush was the only one in the bathroom, it was revealed that for eight years, Ted, Marshall and Lily all shared a toothbrush, with Robin using the same toothbrush for a year while dating Ted. One of the apartment's window has a fire escape that goes to the roof of the building, where Ted and the others have parties and smoke cigarettes. While Ted lived in the apartment, there have been incidents of damage, both to the members of the main cast, such as when Marshall accidentally stabbed Lily with one of the swords hanging in the wall above the fireplace, or to the apartment, like the hole in the wall next to the door, made by Barney, or the damaged wall, made by one of Ted's encyclopedias.

In No Pressure, Robin moves out of the apartment, when Ted professes his love for her and she doesn't reciprocate. In Karma, Ted also moves out of the apartment, leaving it to Marshall and Lily, who were bored of their life in the suburbs.

In Trilogy Time, it is shown that Marshall (and most likely, Lily) are still living in the apartment in 2015.

LocationEdit

The apartment is right above MacLaren's Pub, the bar where Ted, Marshall, Lily, Robin and Barney hang out and drink beers. The apartment is on the third floor.

The building is in the Upper West Side (Teddy West Side's origins are from this) neighborhood, across the street from an entrance to the 86th Street subway, as seen in Subway Wars when Lily runs across the street from MacLaren's to the subway entrance. A very important episode for The Apartment is Intervention, where it is revealed how different marks in it came to be.

In Zip, Zip, Zip, when Ted and Victoria are discussing their 1 month abstinence from sex, he tells the taxi driver to go to 75th and Amsterdam.
