Kramer comes running into Jerry's apartment saying that he noticed a naked woman across the street. How did Kramer see her? Isn't his apartment across from Jerry's? His windows are on the opposite side of Jerry's, so how did he see the nude woman?!? lol

That is right. I never thought about that before but yeah, Kramer lives on the opposite side.

I guess we have to assume he didnt see her from his own apartment? Maybe he was in Newman's.

Good point though.

Well maybe I'm wrong, but...

Okay, so say you're staring at Jerry's apartment from the angle we see it from. The door is on the far wall, and the windows are on our left. So that would be the front of the building. Kramer is directly across from Jerry, so wouldn't that mean that his windows would also be on the same side, since that's still the front of the building?

Like you could walk out of Jerry's door, walk in through Kramer's door, and still find the windows on your left.

Kramer's windows looked out the opposite way from Jerry's. In the Chicken Roaster episode, the sign from the Kenny Rogers Chicken Place turned Kramer's apartment bright red from the light, but had no effect on Jerry's apartment...

One of my favorite Kramer lines:



[Jerry is at his apartment door]
Jerry: "By Mennen"
[Jerry notices a red dot on his door, he traces it to Kramer's peep hole,
Jerry then knocks on Kramer's door. When the door is opened a huge red light
is seen, Kramer is there smoking away on a cigar]
Jerry: What's going on in there?
Kramer: What?
Jerry: The light!
Kramer: Oh the red, its the chicken roaster sign, its right across my window.
Jerry: Can't you shut the shades?
Kramer: They are shut...

Hmm, I think so. I think that Kramer and Jerry both would have windows on the side where Jerry's bed or bathroom would be maybe, since they were both at the end of the hall. But I dont think Kramer would have a window on the same side as Jerry's often used window in his living room, since Kramer was on the opposite side of the apt building.
