The place is a co-op, and they don't own the land they reside on. Rumors have flown that it would be a mall or the baseball stadium (that old fight) at some point. Chances of them not taking the land eventually = nil of course, but co-ops are never popular in this area. I decided not to grab them in the 35-50k range 5 years ago not knowing if I'd stay here. Well, 2004 is here and so reside I - and while I'm rich through appreciation of my property...I could easily have acquired something there.
Still - you're dead on about the timing - I hadn't thought about that. There are some serious disadvantages about being there, but the view...my god the view. Maybe I'm better off, but the view!
I'm not in the million and up price range, not on my gummint salary :)
