  1. Even at the height of the crazy years, this was not worth it’s nearly $1500/sf price. Everything looks so standard: windows, trim, kitchenette, and an uninspiring layout. They’re lucky they got $1300+/sf for it.

    1. Keep in mind that smaller units naturally fetch higher prices per square foot; 65 other units in the building fetched similar price per square foot figures circa 2016; and each sale became a comp for other sales in the neighborhood.

      1. even by small unit standard (and this unit is not even small side as a 2-bedroom), this seems like a very high $/sqft for today’s condo market (congrats to the seller).

        also worth noting that this is a 2/1 (not a 2/2), which in terms of functionality and pricing (imo) deserves to be looked at more as a 1/1 than a 2/2.

        1. Actually, the average sale price per square foot for newer (built in the past 10 years), sub-750-square-foot units over the past six months has been roughly…$1,330 per square foot, which is effectively the price per square foot at which the unit above just sold having fetched $1,485 per square foot in 2016.
