Average $ per square Foot Quarterly
4th quarter thru 12/31 (final): $446/SF
1st
quarter (thru 2/13): $493/SF

The price per
square foot in this area is going to ride partially
upon what kind of units are available, and any
building rehab or construction that is occurring.
In the 3rd quarter of 2008, for example, the first
closings at Allele and FP3 occurred. This is an area
in development.
There are hundreds more units, stores, and
restaurants on the drawing board that will be
marketed and completed within the next 3-5 years in
the Seaport proper..

Number of Available Condominiums
The number of available
condos as of 2/13/10: 30. This includes
units currently listed in LINK at the Macallen
Building, Court Square Press, Allele, and 36 A
Street, which are, in my humble opinion, really in
South Boston. There are also many more units available
at FP3 on Congress Street, than are currently listed
in the MLS and LINK.
Average days on market for available units as of
2/13/10: 195.
This includes pre construction marketing time for
the units listed at Allele
and FP3 etc.. This number would go up considerably if all the
available units were actually listed.
