Saturday morning downtown bloomington is coffee club heaven
harry dunham .. heartland college .. reflects on registration.
tony ... harry tell me about heartland, whats going on.
harry .. well we have his and her soccer teams playing games
tony... have they got a locker room.
harry... no, they wont have a locker room for two years.
harry is a regular downtowner on Saturday mornings with a great table full of people that i refer to as the coffee club. meeting on a regular basis at the the coffee hound is a good way to ease into the weekend after a good weeks work. one member comments, computers and credit cards are the worst thing that ever happened to this country, another is enthused with her flower purchase, now a center piece, at our table. harry has his eye on his planned entertainment for later in the day at Peoria's blues fest. and then there is me who shows up asking questions.
tony .. harry what happened at heartland during back to school that was memorable.
harry .. well we did have a super smooth enrollment process this year. we used mentoring assistants to walk around with them that made data and numbers quicker and the whole thing ran more efficiently.

downtown bloomington's million dollar penthouse ... vip tour planned for 9/15
public open houses soon after. surely to be announced, stay posted.
Today
ward waller is busy showing foot traffic from a very busy farmers market some of the floor plans for condos for sale. with 4 families living in the property, and 3 more in 30 days, ensenberger condos wont be available long. run don't walk, there are still 19 of 28 units available. tony... how many sq. ft. are in the penthouse.
ward... the million dollar unit is 3200 square feet, and the other one is 1800 s.f., and it is $750k.
tony.. is that finished.
ward ... yes that is turn key ready to live in.
http://www.wallerhomes.com/ , ward@wallerhomes.com, ph. 829-7979. ward is showing by appointment to maintain his showroom hours and coordinate accordingly.
as ward shows floor plans to condo shoppers, some refer to Sarasota's condos that are experiencing prices from $500 to $1,000 per sq. ft. . ward explains parking options to the condo shoppers. ward says they will have 20 spaces next to the building, it is gated i notice. the other parking space needs will be in either of the nearby parking garages.
tony ... didn't you have plans for parking in the basement?
ward ... yes and after support systems were designed the basement roof height was not lending its self to be the best options.
they have a 1450 sf unit priced at 350k and a 800 s.f. unit priced at 180k.
tony ... so your at about $200 per square foot on these units.
ward ... yes that is right.
i will be taking some interior photos of model units hopefully next week. i would think that many other building property owners are holding their breath for the sell out of the wallers condos and calculating their new net worth.
