Some loft and condo buildings are very quiet -- steel and concrete construction. Some are nightmarish and you can hear the cushion squeek every time your neighbor shifts position on the sofa -- much less anything else! So make sure you do as much due diligence as is possible to do before you decide on any building or any specific unit.

Also, always be sure you thoroughly check the condo docs, and find out about the health of the condo association (including the existing reserve and any potential upcoming assessments). The economic downturn has caused a lot more problems with recent condo developments than more established ones. You don't want to buy into any development where large numbers of owners are behind on HOA fees or where units are going into foreclosure left and right. I haven't sold anything in Ice House Lofts so I don't have any knowledge of the soundness of the project as a whole, so don't consider this information directed at that building -- just general advice about any recently developed condo or loft development.

Best of luck!
Thanks!
