Do you remember this unit? We wrote about it back in October of 2011 just before it went to the public foreclosure auction. It is a 3,798 square foot loft in the Banner Building in Belltown. It was once listed as high as $2,450,000 and now is selling it for $1,549,000.
This unit is insane. Although the pictures don’t reveal much, I can promise you that the unit itself would blow away your expectations. It is truly one of a kind and now at a price of $1,549,000 (407psf) it should attract plenty of interest. This type of unit in San Francisco or New York would sell for well over 1,400 per square foot (depending on the neighborhood my guess would be $4,000,000-$6,000,000).
