all Soho is not alike: 12 Wooster Street loft sells for $869/ft after renovation

1 Worth Street loft sells after renovation / how building values change
every picture fails to tell a storyI hope it is not just that I am cranky today, what with the chilly rain not (yet) (really) melting the snow, but I am feeling a disturbing disconnect between the photos and listing…

250 Mercer Street mini-loft sells up only a smidge over 2005
that’s $5,000 if you are scoring at homeIn “honor” of the (now begun!) snopocalypse, I had hoped to continue looking at memorably tragic sales this week. (That’s on top of my posts of February 6, 106 Duane Street loft sellers…
