After my last post, Mac and I went back to visit Unit #3 as well as another apartment building altogether. The new apartment was great - nice big island with bar seating, nice community, but horrible view of a bridge that's being reconstructed. The leasing agent said that the construction was expected to be over by Thanksgiving. So our view would change from watching the bridge being reconstructed to watching cars drive over the bridge. Nice.
Unit #3 was still beautiful but it just seemed so small. But we got a better deal than we'd expected and based on proximity to the Metro (no trudging through the rain and snow for Jimmy), the amazing common areas in the building (the gym! the terrace! the Mac computers that Mac can do homework on, thereby avoiding a purchase of said Mac computer!), the schools, the great light in the apartment, and the views (the sweet little church and a park), we applied and were accepted yesterday at #3.
Our move-in date is October 7 and we are super-excited! No second guessing the decision...

Wow, looks amazing! I would think those gorgeous common areas will probably make up a lot for the smaller size. Congrats!
