equinox condos on eastlake

[WaitingForSanity]

Went by the equinox condos near south lake union (near the Hooters).
It's going to real interesting watching this building. It backs directly onto I-5. Noise all around. $700,000 for a 2 bedroom. (That's a lot of chicken wings.)
Seriously who in their right mind would by one of these? Even in our bubbly Seattle market, you can get a decent house for $700,000. I just don't unsterstand the appeal of condos. Is it a premium just for having something new?
Commute is short, but you need to add the time needed to go up and down the elevator with groceries.

Who doesn't like orange track shorts with pantyhose?
