So, a 900sf studio apartment for $226K.  About $250 a sq foot and no parking.  Let's start to think about what we can turn these into after a few years.  Or perhaps just. . .

The mock photo of the condos looks like a detention facility.  I love all the forlorn people standing on their balconies, looking out at the surface parking lots across the street(s).

Here's a rendering. I think an IKEA apartment would be more appealing than this.

Wow.

You have to work hard to build something that ugly.

I bet if you have patio furniture on the first floor you are going to find you have "guests" some mornings.

Looks like a place where you would walk by and adopt someone.

"Pick me!  Pick me!  Pick me!"

If only they could make a rope out of bedsheets and climb down to a waiting vehicle.

Maybe if this works out they'll have a nice view of a Chris Bumgarner special...like a Target or something.

Well, that would be a shame because today they have a lovely view of a really nice surface parking lot.

If I lived on the bottom floor, I would not walk around the building to enter my cell, I would just hop the railing.

I was thinking they could extend the bars on the railing and make it an overflow center for the DL Moss.

Perhaps a work release or half-way program.

Don't be so cheap.  Get a rope, it's less likely to break.

They take your belt and any ropes you have when you "purchase" a unit.  They also screen you for depression.
