**back on market**.
This property has foundation issues and is being sold as is. The property has some nice downtown views in its current 1 story configuration. Imagine the views from a 2 story home with a rooftop deck .... it would be absolutely amazing. Several new builds in the immediate area in the $1.6 - $1.8mm range, but none with the views of this lot.
** please note, I am not interested in any type of seller financing deals or lease options.
