It's been down for a while. Your best bet is to call the number on the side of the building. And be down there to catch the guy who is "showing" the lofts. I went there in July to see a loft and the number rang & rang. No answering machine or anything. The guy called me back 15 minutes later and offered to show me a few units. He was very nice, but the whole thing was very odd. No official office, no business cards, no web site, no flyers, etc. Just a guy who appeared to be hanging out there or working there. I saw a few units & was very very interested, but they never emailed me or called me, despite leaving my contact info. Not sure if that was a random experience, but I am waiting for these units to be auctioned off in the Wayne Co. Tax Forfeiture Auction. About half of the units in the bldg are in tax foreclosure last time I looked. |

I know! Me, too. Have you been in there? They did a great job in there. Some of them are duplex lofts and the ones that face downtown are fabulous! I wish I would have taken pix inside, I could have shown you. If I hear anything about this place, I will let you know, ok?! I would love one of these lofts too. |

My only beef about the whole thing was that they put the AC units on the balconies it makes the building look so strange. |

I recommend you contact realtor Austin Black at austin@austinb2.com. He'll be able to get you in the Carlton. I live around the corner in the Carola. There are some spectacular units in the Carlton, some with "million dollar" views of the city. Great people too. |

I have been an owner in the Carlton for 3 years and absolutely love it. The views are indeed awesome and we have a great group of co-owners. I concur with Tom - contact Austin. He is very knowledgable and is great to work with. |

Looks like this development is in a lot of trouble. Check out the story in today's Freep/DetNews real estate section: http://www.freep.com/article/2 0081130/BUSINESS04/811300346/1 002/BUSINESS Looks like no one will touch it w/ a 10-foot pole. It's sad since it's such a nice development. |
