Yesterday I visited 275 8th St. The second floor of a three story
concrete-frame wood-floor building is available. The ground floor
houses a motorcycle/scooter shop, the third floor is also vacant but is
being bid by some friends of mine and is probably out of our budget
anyways.
* 6ksf quoted (uh huh, tell me another one)
* rate unknown, probably somewhere around $0.70 - $0.90
* sweatshop moved out recently
* lots of single-pane windows looking out on 8th st
* lots of noise, lots of light, lots of heat lost to the outdoors
* shared building entrance with upstairs neighbors
* 9' ceilings (?)
* serious freight elevator opens onto Clementina
* roof access (with OK of upstairs neighbors)
* floors are very not soundproof
* serious electrical (dozens of 20A circuits)
* downstairs neighbors are somewhat noisy during business hours
* scary bathrooms need demo, do-over
* nasty badly treated floorcovering needs demo, do-over
* wierd scary clothes hangers in back need removal
* no kitchen, no shower
* owner willing to do some build-out to suit (possibly incl. kitchen)

(If someone could wiki these two reports and add them to Moving/ I'd
appreciate it.)
