Whenever I find myself on East Washington, I marvel to one degree or another at the transformation of the avenue from the home of industrial buildings and used car dealerships to a constellation of fancy high rises. Well, as high as you can get when near the Capitol.
Here are a couple of the latest builds: the Moxy, a boutique hotel and Bakers Place, a mass timber building that nears completion and shall be home to folks who can afford luxury apartments. Costs to live in the lap of luxury will surely be high but their website curiously omits prices.
The white exterior makes Bakers Place stick out but is not my cup of tea. Just looks too clinical, too sterile. On the other hand, I was pleased to see that the graffiti had been removed from the Gardner Bakery Co. ghost signs.
