Our recent scoop on the sale of both Grand Penthomes at the Millennium Tower (one that sold to mega millionaire venture capitalist Tom Perkins) has been getting quite a bit of press lately, and oddly enough we received this email today: This is all great [referring to the sale of a ~$9,000,000 condo] I suppose, [...]

Drive before you buy… From the street: We bring the deets:

If you’ve been waiting to purchase one of the units in the Millennium Tower, your patience has been rewarded. Not only are they offering their available units at 15% less, but they’re extending that refund to those already in contract.

If you’ve kept up with this site, you should be getting a grasp of what’s happening with Millennium Tower. Sales have been brisk, construction is moving along, the views are incredible, and now the inside: Anyone fancy a bath (insert British accent here). Very nice finishes. Views from a corner 1 bedroom unit. Of course [...]

Again, we posted this on the new .org and we’re ironing out the kinks. There are soooo many more ways to get involved than this typical top down (we post, you comment) structure of the blog here. There is a forum, each member can have their own blog, you can upload photos, files, video, and [...]

Since we’re on the subject of Millennium Tower, and their apparent record price per square foot, we thought we’d share some more good stuff. We know, we know… you’ve seen the daytime views from the top of Millennium Tower in the papers, on other blogs, and everywhere else in between, but we all know the [...]
