Really curious about this listing here:

A 2 bedroom unit with 3 exposures in a 2-unit-per-floor building seems like a pretty good deal for $799k even in a 1990's building. Sure, it needs a new floor, kitchen and bathrooms, but still seems like a good deal. Possible leaky condo? I guess the walkup across the street is overdue for a view-blocking replacement...



On second thought, I looked at a few other downtown listings and they don't seem particularly expensive, probably comparable to Toronto actually. Did something happen over the last few years?

It was covered in scaffolding in 2007 so you assume they fixed it
