VERY nice, especially if there is a bunch of parking below.

The parking is horrible, it's like a rabbit warren down below.
The place looks nice, but is half empty, lots of speculators brought into this building.

Gotta have good parking.
How much are the units going for?

Inside it's nice and spacious and the views from the upper floors are something. The hotel, that is.
The "Center" as a whole looks empty, like so many others.
Outside it was falling apart even before it was finished, like cheap theatre scenery.
To say the scale is too much is an understatement IMO.

If its half empty, then it also means its half full.
Not bad for a real estate proyect that was speculation from beginning to end.
Supposedly, there are plans to expand parking capacity, at least that's information found at the website.

NALs, it has more than half sold, but sold to speculators that just sit on the property hoping to make a few $$$ profit in the future. This is very common here, this is why we have so many empty buildings, but yet they are sold out.
In my opinion this building is a lemon and will always be half empty in occupancy terms. I also think some of those speculators will loose money, especially at the prices they brought at, then again, I'm sure many couldn't careless 
You need to do a little more research on the developer NALs

I agree with Robert, the parking is very poorly laid out, almost like it was an afterthought.
It's just plain weird.

I know its more than half sold, what I was referring was that many of the units were sold to people who live in their condominiums, whether full or part-time, more than I was expected.

Are you sure about that? Who told you that?
