The history

Artist Ryan Livingstone and his husband Chris Barnes moved into another loft in this building a few years after it was converted to condos in 2000. When the owner of unit 108 ran into some creditor trouble and the property went on the market under power of sale, they took a look. There were cigarette holes in the bathtub, water-damaged cabinets in the kitchen and garbage bags taped over the windows. They snapped it up and started renovating.

Big selling point

It’s now the perfect contrast between old and new. The guys polished up the concrete columns, removed drywall to expose brick, buffed up the terrazzo floors and added an ultra-modern kitchen with custom lacquered cabinets and LED lighting:

Possible deal breaker

The loft doesn’t come with its own outdoor space, although there is a 450-square-foot shared rooftop deck with a gas barbecue.

By the numbers

• $675,000 • 1,170 square feet • $745 in monthly maintenance fees • 12-foot ceiling height • 2 parking spaces • 1 bedroom • 1 bathroom • 1 locker
