Recreation area

There is a pool that extends almost the entire width of the property and a BBQ area on the first floor for all the residents of the building.

We attended an open house of the entire Pierce School Lofts building last weekend and were given permission to photograph whatever we wanted.

The Pierce School was built in 1895, bought by the owners in 2000 for $275,000 as a flooded and rodent infested shell and converted to condos in 2005. All the units are for sale, ranging in price from $359,000 to $699,000 for the lower lofts and $3,399,000 for the 9,500 square foot penthouse.

And an interesting fireplace as well! I'm sure it's more appealing in the summer months! V

This looks like a real selling point for the properties. Love the outdoor fireplace.
