Downtown Landmark Reports Sizzling Sales.

CityFront Terrace, San Diego's downtown landmark condominium, has already sold 40 percent of its 321 units since opening to the public July 9th, according to Kit Schindler, Director of Sales, who predicts a sell-out by next year. She reports that her sales team has gotten "excellent vibes" from the hundreds of prospects who have viewed the property and she doesn't see anything on the horizon to suggest that sales will slow down.

"Demand in general just keeps growing for the downtown area, and while there are new projects by other developers slated to come on line, CityFront Terrace is really a one of a kind, completely unique project that can never again be duplicated," Schindler said, adding "owning here is truly an opportunity of a lifetime."

CityFront Terrace is a development of Crescent Heights, a leading national condominium developer with premium residential properties in major cities coast-to-coast. The company acquired the property from the original developer in March and has over $50 million in contracts and closed sales since the July opening.

Schindler credits CityFront Terrace's impeccable "front row seat" location at the western end of Harbor Drive in the Marina District, together with its wide variety of plans, services and amenities, with bringing an exceptionally broad range of buyer demographics to the project. Schindler, who was Director of Sales & Marketing for The Harbor Club, another landmark, luxury high-rise property in the Marina district, says that the spectrum of prospects for luxury urban properties has grown dramatically since that project was completed. "There is a much broader demographic of buyer today than just four years ago," she said. "Today we're selling to the first time buyer, to couples who are making this their first home together, single professionals, empty nesters, families with new babies and families with school-aged children, retirees and investors. We also have a very strong representation of the 'desert' buyer from Arizona and Palm Springs who just worships our proximity to water, marinas, cool breezes and stu nning views." She adds that "no matter what their demographic profile, they all share in common a desire to be free of the burden of residential maintenance in a prime location; they want a full complement of services and amenities, and they seek an environment that is hassle-free, yet stimulating."

Within its dramatic and unusual brick and limestone facade, CityFront Terrace offers three uniquely different "lifestyles," which include Tower Condominium Residences, two story garden level patio townhomes, and "loft" residences in the historic Soap Factory building which is part of the complex. Tower condominium floor-plans range from one bedroom to three bedroom-three bath plans, and are traditional-style residences with fireplaces and extremely generous terraces. Excellent harbor and city views are a feature of the units in the high-rise portion.

CityFront Terrace's remaining inventory is priced from $375,000 to $1.9 million for the penthouse. The sales office and showcase models are located on site, at 500 West Harbor Drive, Suite 1101. There is complementary valet parking. Appointments are recommended and you can reach the CityFront Terrace Sales Office at [phone].
