I mean, this is Fitler Square. The city needs more people BUYING multi-million dollar properties with skin in the game. When you plunk 3mil down on a single home, you will be active and involved and hold the city accountable. There’s enough inventory for everyone.

Now a multistory owner focused condo building here? I’d get behind that. In terms of the design - it doesn’t look great - but, again, this is FS, you can’t move product like this unless it’s incredibly well done. I’d expect all the exterior finishes to be very polished and refined.
