These condos are pitched as hipster urban living in the suburbs -- "Mercer boasts the perfect blend of urban sophistication with suburban ease." One problem: urban hipsters don't want to live in the suburbs. That's why they're called urban hipsters, not suburban hipsters. High-income young people pay asinine prices for condos in San Francisco because it's so cool to live in San Francisco. You can't get the same asinine prices for a two-bedroom shitbox a half hour out of the city. People who want to live in the suburbs want a little space, and a back yard.
Nevertheless, after more than a year on the market, Mercer is still trying to charge outrageous prices for tiny suburban shitboxes with big HOA fees:
