$340,000 Garage – Seriously, That’s Just For a Garage

Just a few days ago I blogged about a company in the US building storage space condominiums. These units are not zoned for human habitation and are intended as owned storage on Units range up to 1250 sq.ft. and cost about $82,000. I though it was a fabulous idea – a good use of condominium controlled development, it meets a need, and reasonably priced.

They have been outdone.

A luxury car garage – 34 units total – called The Dens – has been recently been completed near Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The kicker – a 1600 sq.ft. garage was purchased for $340,000.

In other news, reported by the Globe and Mail today, income inequality is rising quickly in Canada.

A Condo you will never be able to afford – $98.5 Million USD

The tag line is:

Not only do you live at the centre of the universe, you overlook it

And for that right person who feels that they live (nay, are) the centre of the universe, there is now a condominium in construction that will have enough square footage to hold every cranny of your massiveness. The one57.

There are actually two (2!) of these apartments at this price – the 75^th floor 13,554 ($7,267/sqf) square foot, and the (for the more refined) 90^th floor 10,923 ($9,018/sqf) square foot residence.

I can honestly say that I don’t have the funds to live there.
