Condos near pre-sale goal

November 30th, 2007

BY LISA BERNARD-KUHN | THE ENQUIRER

Pre-construction sales are ramping up for Miller Valentine Group’s One River Plaza - a sign that the developers could soon break ground on the nearly $150 million riverfront project.

To date, 28 condos have been pre-sold for the project, adjacent to Sawyer Point at the foot of the Purple People Bridge.

“People finally understand that we’re going to do this project,” said Christine Schoonover, an agent with Huff Realty overseeing the development’s sales.

With condos priced from $550,000 to $2 million, Miller Valentine has said it will begin construction after meeting a pre-sell mark of $35 million to $36 million.

The project is about eight condo sales away from that goal, Schoonover said.

“And really, we have more than eight people interested in signing contracts,” she said. “We’re probably going to wait, though, until after Christmas to start digging in the ground.”
