I have to seriously question whether this would conform to any standard of that which can be legally rented?
As far as I can tell there is no sink, toilet or a means to egress in the event of a fire or other emergency? These people need to be reported to the authorities and confined to study hall until 2011!

Yes, DinOR, this is a "spacious loft" in Santa Barbara. Some people will do anything to live there, and they will probably not have a problem renting it out for full price. It seems like the City of SB kinda just looks the other way.
Thanks for your comments!
bradinsb,
Think nothing of it! When I was in the service we "sub-let" a GARAGE off Orange in Long Beach, CA. It had a couch, empty beer kegs and an cracked engine block for furniture!
You had to wade through the empty beer cans and knock on the door upstairs to use the facilities? In short, it was a dump AND a fire hazard (then again we were only paying $40 a month!
