The speed of this deal really shows how incredible demand is for downtown, for both owners and the residents, especially close to Central Avenue”, states Tranetzki. “With the substantial renovations and proximity to local neighborhood hotspots such as Culinary Dropout and Uptown Plaza, The Madison attracted multiple out-of-state and local owners with the Seller choosing the best Buyer”, adds Laakso.
