Of the five recently converted condos in the Glassworks building (207 King), two have been added to the MLS at reduced prices (from $16,000 to $55,000 off). And while it might not be too much of a reduction in terms of percentage (1.6% to 3.3%), it’s definitely another data point (and perhaps a signal that there’s room for negotiation on all five).

What exactly are they referring to when they speak of “immediate access to world-class shopping”? The Giants Dugout store across the street? World-class restaurants? The Acme Chophouse?
And that bathroom, while very stylish, looks completely ridiculous with the frosted glass covering the part of the toilet that doesn’t really require covering. How about some real privacy? And tell me that’s not the toilet paper holder all the way to the right, nearly under the towel racks.
If only they did this place up like the Shoreline. I’d kill for this location (aside from the realtor’s clearly delusional idea of “immedate access”) compared to the Shoreline.
Is it me or does the kitchen look too bleak and colorless. I know some lofts are suppose to have that look, but to me it’s just too industrial looking when it fact it should look a little more warm and homely…
“Warm and homely”?
There are a lot of homely kitchens in SF, but his one looks great!
I think the first poster was using the word in the english sense rather than the american sense:
In England, the word suggests a wholesome simplicity without artificial refinement or elegance; since it characterizes that which is comfortable and attractive, it is equivalent to homey: a homely cottage.
In the United States, homely usually suggests absence of natural beauty: an unattractive person almost homely enough to be called ugly.
