originally i wanted to get one of the buildings in the south park area but it's just too expensive - i am currently considering Rowan, brockman, roosevelt, little tokyo..any other suggestions?

I was really impressed with the quality that the developer put into the Douglas, which I believe is the developer's first project downtown. We liked the feel of the building, with exposed brick in most units. The kitchens that the developer is putting in the building are nicer than I've seen anywhere else, and we were able to choose colors, etc., at no extra cost.
We considered some of the other places you mentioned...The Roosevelt was more expensive, and it seemed like they were shooting for more of a super-luxury vibe that we didn't really jive with. We toured Little Tokyo Lofts and, while we could get more for our money there, there were several things we didn't like. Location was probably the biggest factor, but the quality of the units was inferioir to what we saw at the Rowan. On top of that, the sales person didn't do a very good job, and basically just confused us by showing us every available unit in the place without regard to our price range.
I'd recommend that you contact the Rowan sales office. They'll be happy to show you the building, even though it's still under construction. We've been working with Millie and she has been incredibly helpful.
Good luck in your search!
