Coronado Bay Club Conversion
Author: Diana Heeb Bivona
GlobeSt.com is reporting that Watt Genton Associates is converting the new 346-unit Coronado Bay Club luxury apartment complex here to condominiums. A $40-million bridge loan for the conversion of the 85%-leased property to condominiums has been arranged. It is speculated that the escalation in housing prices and the lag in apartment rents are providing financial incentives to developers to convert rather than operate apartments.
