			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We wanted to take a moment to share a beneficial service we provide for both buyers and sellers looking at downtown Seattle real estate.  Over the last couple of years, we have built a collection of websites for buildings downtown, and have many more in the hopper.  Our intention with these websites is to allow each unique address to convey its own personality online.</p>
<p>Every site we build for a condo building allows a visitor to:</p>
<ul>
<li>View active units for sale,</li>
<li>View the past three years of sold history,</li>
<li>Sign up for instant email notifications of new listings,</li>
<li>Inquire about a particular unit&#8217;s value,</li>
<li>See a neighborhood map and WalkScore,</li>
<li>Look at a photo gallery of amenities, and</li>
<li>Get building management/concierge contact information.</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition, whenever we have a seller that lists with the Stroupe Group, we integrate a customized page with professional photography.  All of our building websites also place at the top of all major search engines for maximum exposure, and we also use linking strategies to further secure placement.</p>
<p>Visit our current project: <a title="Escala Condos" href="http://escalatower.com" target="_blank">EscalaTower.com</a></p>
<p>Below is a list of other websites that are constantly being improved, and we would love to hear any suggestions on how we can make them better.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most all dictionaries define a loft as a storage area or attic.  This can cause some confusion, so I scoured the Internet to find out everything I could to provide the true definition of a &#8220;livable loft.&#8221;  In real estate terms, all lofts feature ceilings 10&#8242; or higher, and with very few exceptions, large windows measuring 6&#8242; or higher.  Lofts can also be classified into three styles; <em>New York Lofts</em>, <em>Industrial Lofts</em>, and <em>Modern Lofts</em>.</p>
<h2>Examples of Lofts</h2>
<p><strong>New York</strong> &#8211; Also referred to as the &#8220;true&#8221; loft, the most common trait among this style is the lofted bedroom.  This design also has very high ceilings of 15&#8242; or higher, and traditionally excludes interior walls.  New York style lofts typically sell at a premium compared to others because the 2nd story is commonly more desirable.</p>

<p><strong>Industrial</strong> &#8211; This style of loft may or may not include a 2nd story, but strictly refers to industrial or commercial structures that have been converted (usually by the addition of full baths and kitchens).  It&#8217;s also very common for this style to include exposed brick walls and/or ductwork.</p>

<p><strong>Modern</strong> &#8211; This style falls into the definition of a loft because of ceiling and window height.  However, it&#8217;s common for this style of loft to have interior walls separating rooms.  This type of design has also become a popular trend in new construction and will typically have a less industrial feel.</p>

<h2><span><strong><span style="color:#00335a;"><strong>DESCRIPTION</strong></span></strong></span></h2>
<p align="left">Originally built in 1914, 81 Vine was renovated by developer and architect <a title="AIA Seattle 2001 Medallist Carolyn D. Geise FAIA" href="http://www.aiaseattle.org/archive_honors_medal01_geise.htm" target="_blank">Carolyn Geise</a> in 1999.  The majority of homes offer true <a title="Loft" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loft" target="_blank">loft</a> charm with brick exposed walls and high ceilings.  The 5-story brick mid-rise building consists of only 20 units offering studio lofts, 1-bedrooms, 2-bedrooms  and 2-story lofts.  The bottom 3 stories are all unique lofts, and the top 2 stories was an addition made during 81 Vine&#8217;s renovation.  This building can easily be recognized by the cylinder shaped sculpture by <a title="Buster Simpson" href="http://www.bustersimpson.net/" target="_blank">Buster Simpson</a> near it&#8217;s entrance.   The sculpture is attached to the building&#8217;s gutter.  This biofiltration system is designed for residents to use to water plants growing on the rooftop terrace.  Original prices ranged from $200k to $800k.</p>
