Re: NorthPoint Cambridge (The one that was train yards, the big plan.)
@Brad: you assume! (/sarcasm)
At the recent HYM meeting in Northpoint I was astounded how many folks didn't know that Avalon could build on two more parcels west of Sierra/Tango (between the two buildings and the current elevated tracks). They were surprised, and got huffy (of course, HYM has nothing to do with Avalon so talk about misplaced anger). Who buys a unit without a clue about development (despite tons of clues over the years) when most of the land around it is FLAT?! It was precisely the reason I *didn't* buy on that side - and am much happier on the park side.
Many if not most city units have limited, unexceptional views. Those buying/renting here would surely be aware of the future buildout and not be taken by surprise.
