$40 million boutique hotel planned along Beltline

There are a lot of young folks out there these days who don't bat an eye at $1.4 million.

Only if by "young" you mean 50+.

Saying it's walking distance to Piedmont Park might be a bit of a stretch. It's over two miles to the very corner of the park. By that measure, Northside Drive and Lindbergh are both walking distance to Piedmont Park (and yes, I know that a dedicated path is different). Actually, Krog is the only one of those places under a mile. But still, fronting the Beltline and with a townhome like that, they'll easily sell for a premium. $1.4m seems quite high, but I'm sure they will sell.

While yes Piedmont Park is 2 miles away, it's an enjoyable 2 miles that pedestrians wouldn't even question walking that far. Which is why walking 2 miles on the BeltLine or in interesting urban setting, Manhattan, where there is activity, etc. makes that 2 mile walk feel like less time than walking 2 miles on Cobb Pkwy. Thousands of people walk those 2 miles every weekend without thinking about it. I would still consider it walkable.

I've walked half a mile in Manhattan (daily for several weeks) and wanted to claw my brains out. Awful.

But yeah, 2 miles on the Beltline is fine for the periodic jaunt. Still pretty far, and I'm not sure I would list Piedmont Park as "walking distance" on sales documents.
