I was just looking at some of the Asbury floor plans. Those have to be some of the most depressing apartment interiors in the city. Deep units and 1-2 windows per unit placed on an angle. This folks is why window wall apartment buildings aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

As far as the 3 buildings being lost, it's always a shame, but more so that at least 2 out of 3 haven't been better cared for. There's barely anything worth salvaging on those exteriors unfortunately.
