I respectfully disagree. As this area becomes developed, I predict it will not be called/considered 'downtown'...more 'uptown' or 'mid-town', or whatever. It is very disconnected from the walk-ability of downtown. I think eventually this neighborhood will grow to have it's own sense of place (much like West Campus does) in the next 15 years, that's if this is the beginning of a trend.....and I truly hope it is.
I've brokered dozens of condos downtown and NEVER has anyone wanted to live in Westgate, Cambridge, Penthouse.....no mater the price or condition, and I've showed them all over the years......no takers...they were outliers. Shit, even the Nokonah was a tough sell for my buyers. Even when the price was WAY lower, they still would rather be in the mix...so to speak.
The Linden has it's work cut out for it if they plan to price like 70 Rainey/West/etc. People will not pay top dollar to live that far away.
