I don't know if their were differing visions of this project, but I remember when they expected to sell units at $400,000. At least they are coming down in prive considering the very conservative design and vinyl siding.
For some reason there are still signs posted advertising "Urban Flats"... These are the furthest thing from "Urban Flats" that I can think of.
They kind of reconfigured the site plan and lowered the prices because the units weren't selling.
I thought "Urban Flats" was pretty funny, too. This is no more urban than an apartment complex in Colerain Township.
Does anyone know if any "real" people are living at Marburg Square? I checked the Auditor's site a few months ago, and I could see only one person listed as an owner, and I got the impression that he may have been a property investor / speculator.
Those are real people living in the 3 existing Townhomes as well as a few in the flats. Both Row homes located in the center are sold. One is being used as a model until the owner moves in. There are a couple units sold in the existing flats as well as the flats buildings under construction. You need an appointment to see the Townhomes because they sold the model.Stop in and see Michael and/or Laura. They are there all the time.
AN "APARTMENT COMPLEX IN COLERAIN TOWNSHIP", THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE-MORE LIKE A SECTION 8 APARTMENT COMPLEX! THE "URBAN FLATS" AND FANCY MARKETING WILL NOT EVER MAKE THEM SEXY OR CHANGE THE FACT THAT THEY ARE BUTT UGLY AND LOCATED BEHIND A BIGGS & A SUBSIDIZED RETIREMENT HOME. GET REAL. STOP FOOLING THE PUBLIC.
They should call it the Marburg Square Trailer Park of Oakley.
Wow...some strong feelings!
