If you happen to work downtown moving here approaches no brainer status.

Makese sense to rent until the big wave of new towers hits the market next year.

I am working a post that lays all this out. There is a chance I'll post it over the weekend. Check out the Icon post on this blog (search below) for some interesting chatter about Phase 1 pricing there.

Brightside,

Not sure if you already posted this one, but it's a massive realized loss at Treo #817:

Hi downtown sideliner,

As it turns out that's in my database but hasn't been posted. Thanks for bringing it up as I'l post it shortly.

It is a very large loss.
