Inside 43215: Building Blocks
If you’ve been tempted by downtown living but afraid you’d miss having your own green space, check out the new project at 199 S. Fifth St. Some of its 23 units include private balconies big enough to put some backyards to shame. There’s even a place for gathering around a campfire.
Besides “large; extra large; and extra, extra large” balconies and a fire pit on the rooftop terrace, 199 S. Fifth promises both “Luxury Loft Living” and low condo fees, a gym, two protected parking spaces per unit, and a seriously stunning look thanks to Meyers Welsh Architecture.
Inside the units, the contemporary feel is helped along by cool, epoxy-coated concrete floors and 8-foot doors. Most have two bedrooms and as many baths, while a few have 100% open floor plans. Then there’s the two-story whopper, unit 603, which has three bedrooms and baths, glass walls on the rooftop second floor, and over 700 square feet of patio space.
Alas, #603 is already reserved (for $675,000), but other units are available ranging from $265,000 to $642,900.
