  1. Last time I was by the area, the aroma of Korean BBQ was pretty noticeable. Is that an everyday thing now?

  2. This ain’t 1700sf

    Nothing says “boutique building” like having a dog grooming business at ground level

  3. “This ain’t 1700sf”

    Listing agent says “it’s just a number”.

    I’d offer $470 per professionally measured, interior, square foot. Also just a number.

    On the floorplan view in the 3d tour, the LR/DR/kitchen is labeled “Hallway”.
