  1. wow 12 parking spaces
    huge.

  2. Well, $500,000 a unit construction cost for a building that’s got two indoor spaces per unit. (6 units, $2.9m construction cost) Guessing these are going to be large apartments, too, with lots of amenities given the neighborhood (they’re mentioning a penthouse). And construction cost is $500,000 a unit.

    Contrast that to city sponsored “affordable” buildings with one bedroom apartments and low amenities that seem always to come in in the $600-800,000 range. There’s gotta be corrupting in there, people making money off the taxpayers wile doing nothing of value.

    • We call it the windy city exactly for this reason. The REAL cost of affordable housing is probably half that at most.

  3. How does one ‘self-certify’ as an architect? Architects obtain licensure through a state’s department of professional regulation.
