Chris Wiggins moved to Manhattan with two friends in 2013 after they graduated from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. They split a one-bedroom apartment in Manhattan’s South Street Seaport neighborhood.
At the same time, Annie Jackson moved into the same building with two of her friends. Soon after they settled in, Taylor Klessens, one of Ms. Jackson’s roommates, struck up a conversation in the elevator with Mike Morgan, one of Mr. Wiggin’s roommates. They discovered that they not only lived on the same floor, but directly across the hall from each other.
