I prefer quality urban living, myself.

They are using some of the cheapest, most hallow materials is my gripe.


I seem to recall mlofts saying that they used rather expensive materials.  Like they use hardy board instead of vinyl siding.  I will have to try to find those old threads.  I know they were active around May of last year.

On a side note "Metro Lofts" received the go ahead on the Trenton portion of Cherry Street Loftmania...

Kinda reminds me of the Condo boom....[:O]

I am sure anyone would.  Thus there must not be much available if people are choosing to pay those prices for this "cheap crap".  Either that or the quality urban living costs a lot more than these lofts and thus these lofts are bargains and they are getting what they are paying for.  If there is a market for higher priced, quality, urban living, I am sure someone will realize it real soon and provide it. Its the way the market works.
