Same! It’s waayyyyy overpriced. & I’m almost certain it will be different from MR. The finishes might be the same, that’s how my lottery apartment is, but the appliances are lower end stainless steel, washer and dryer lower end… still great, but different.

Where do you see the lottery apartments for One Boerum?

It does give a gaudy impression but that I don't mind. My only fear is that it's too huge and may be the subject of a towering inferno, or plane crash, or earthquake topple over, who knows at this point. The bigger something is the bigger the disaster - just like the Titanic, or Grenfell Tower, or the World Trade Center. I do fear huge structures. But once again, if you're living in them, you don't notice the outward appearance, if that makes any sense.
