It's worth what the market with bear. Since two units have sold for high prices (the double unit I quoted about at $6.25M and the one Spacey bought at $5.6M), clearly the market will pay that price for those large units.

There's quite a bit of difference between the units. Unit #151 is listed for $829K. It has 3 BR, 2.5 BA and is 2929 sq ft on 2 levels. The double unit #162/163 which sold for $6.25M is 9069 sf and has 6 BR, 10 BA (7 full, 3 half) on 5 levels with many luxuries including a private indoor elevator, sauna, home theater, multiple verandas and a private rooftop terrace, plus a 4 car garage. You aren't getting those amenities in the smaller units.

I mean come on - they're situated on a pier/peninsula with a fully-gated front entrance and water on three sides. The only ones breaking in will have a helicopter.

No homeless either - one way in and out.

OP here.

i walked through that development (yes you can do that) many times. it's very central, which is nice, but doesn't feel any safer than locust point or any harbor high-rise. my fear in baltimore is that i would be robbed on a gun point while walking down the street, say. or perhaps car-jacking. there are many many condos and homes in baltimore where you are safe from a break-in - i don't really feel like that's a big issue, safety-wise.

By next it to it what do you mean? On the main street or on a separate pier? And does it have 24/7 security and a gated entrance like this one?

Yes, but the street and only entrance is gated off here? So you’re not worried about someone coming up on you as you pull out the car or walk your dog in front of your house. I mean - once you leave for groceries all bets are off but that at least is some comfort I’d imagine.
