The Roanoke prices are now available

Recall that the Roanoke building at the corner of South Oxford and Lafayette had converted to condos and that they were going on sale soon. Well, a perusal of craigslist today shows that several of the units have been advertised. The verdict is that all the 1BRs are gone, and 2BRs from 800-900 square feet are going for $500K+ and the 2 penthouses that are 1000 square feet are priced at $950K and $1MM. I guess not everyone learns from the mistakes of Corcoran in pricing (see the Greene House Condos.)

The ads promise stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and marble baths. I'm willing to bet a beer at the Habana Outpost that the stainless appliances are Frigidaires or of the same ilk. At $900+ a square foot, the buyer should demand a Miele dishwasher, a Viking stove and a SubZero fridge. This remains to be seen.
