CANCOlofts Officially Opens – February 23, 2008

CANCO lofts front

On the way home from Secaucus, I remembered that today is the SHUA Group Performance at Canco Lofts. I wasn’t going to watch, but I decided to stop by to see what was going on there (time was 530PM)

When I turned to St. Paul’s Street, and hit Tonnele Ave, I noticed a few banners hanging on the posts that say “CancoLofts Arts Exhibit” with an arrow directing to the building’s location so I followed it. I arrived there and parked my old Honda in a parking lot across the building.

I was greeted by a nice lady at the desk. So I asked about the Arts Exhibit. She pointed me to another room where there was a sign board that says “CancoLofts Sales Center”. She told me there was a snack and to make myself comfortable.

I was not sure if it is the same as the Arts Exhibit, so I just proceeded anyway and took some pictures:

CancoLofts Amenities
CancoLofts Residents Club Amenities. Can you read it?

CancoLofts Snacks
CancoLofts snacks on the center table. I didn’t feel like nibbling anything.

CancoLofts Billiard Table
A billiard table on the other side of the Sales Center room. I doubt if this is “THE” billiard table.

In case you can’t read it, it says: CANCOLofts – Where history and modernity meet. Where space inspires imagination.

By the way, I wasn’t interested in buying a unit so I didn’t bother asking for a price. I’m sorry if you are expecting a number-crunching report.

Personally, I think CANCOlofts is a very good place to live in if you have money. I am not from that area, but you don’t have to be there for a long time to see that CANCO is the only nice building in that community. Who knows? Maybe this is the start of something innovative there, as far as buildings are concerned. (If you live near there, what can you say about the place?)

So, did you go there for the grand opening of CANCOLofts? I hope you also watched the first installation of Public Acts by SHUA Group. If you missed it, there’s still another one coming (Public Acts “FULL”) on March 1, 2008. It is the last of the series, so make sure to make it.
