Located at the corner of 31st Street and Southwest Trafficway, the beautifully restored historic landmark known as One Park Place offers sophisticated urban elegance in a high-rise condo setting that is usually only found in larger cities, according to the marketing team.

Soaring above the downtown skyline and midtown, the building features 108 luxury condominiums and boasts more than 20,000 square feet of impressive hotel-style amenities.Already the best view in town any time of the year, One Park Place during the fall is especially extraordinary, the marketing team said. Here atop the highest point in the city residents and guests watch the changing seasons.

One Park Place offers a wide-open expanse of natural and urban views. In all directions and over both sides of the state line, scenes of a vibrant cityscape can be seen. Thoughtful creation of the tower?s floor plate affords every home a one-of-a-kind view unmatched in the city.

The building provides abundant amenities discerning buyers expect from a building such as this. Those looking to simplify their lives are often surprised to discover that condo living at One Park Place doesn?t mean sacrificing space, luxury or the ability to host family gatherings. Families and empty-nesters alike choose to live at One Park Place full time, while others use it as their second or vacation home. Residents say they love the maintenance-provided services and appreciate the amount of space available in their homes and in the common areas.What often delights visitors most is that this luxury lifestyle doesn?t come with a penthouse price. The condominium tower offers 20,000 square feet of million-dollar amenities and two- and three-bedroom homes at price points starting in the upper-$200,000s. Andrew Mall, who markets the building along with Mindy Hix and Ellen Vap, said the sell-out of two popular floor plans in 2012 can be attributed in part to the developer?s ongoing commitment. ?Buzz about the project has grown this year thanks to financial stability, a developer who invests in the building and the availability of move-in ready homes,? Mall said. ?Our buyers want to be close to entertainment and retail areas without living in the middle of the noise and congestion. The building is beautiful and full of the finest amenities. With the combination of a real estate property tax abatement until 2016 and FHA-approval, their dollars stretch farther.?Each of the two- and three-bedroom homes offer open floor plans that allow residents to make their own design statement.

From inside their home, owners are able to entertain clients, family and friends without having to step a foot outside the building. Each well-appointed kitchen is equipped with GE stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, granite tile backsplash and an abundance of storage and pantry space. A cozy fireplace in the main living area and a floor plan that allows for a variety of configurations complete the open entertaining area. Each condominium offers a laundry room and inviting interiors that exemplify the modern convenience of condominium living.Earlier this year, the sales team worked with designers from Pottery Barn to furnish a new model home on the 16th floor. With more than 3,000 square feet, it?s listed at $765,000. Incomparable views are realized from every angle of this home, which offers three bedrooms, 31/2 bathrooms and a study.
