I'm curious what you're basing that on, metro. The Maywood
Lofts sold about half their units before they even completely finished the construction phase and they are so much more in line with what the market can support. Since then sales have remained steady, they may have sold 40 out of the 55 units, which is pretty good. Compare to Canfield's dilemma, although thank goodness he was able to pick things up--he counted too much on the notion that there are so many high-income employees downtown that would want to live downtown, 3-4 years later he should consider himself lucky to have sold around 10 of 157 units, including the potential for presales. Every time a developer builds condos he or she is taking a plunge. The great thing about the Lofts is that they're so versatile that if Bradshaw can't sell the rest, he can easily just lease them if he needs to move the units off the market. I think he'll do well though.
