FYI - The assessments at the new lofts on Adams / Morgan are about the same
as ours and they have a doorman, roof top garden and workout facilities.
It is also my understanding that over the last year or two, we have been
paying towards a large debt to the gas company. Apparently, the gas meter
was reading incorrectly and past owners were getting quite the deal. I might
be mistaken, but I'm assuming some of the reserves went towards this?? Does
anyone know?
