It is still strange for me to read the majority of content on the far right in a smaller space, but a lot of people are trying that (even CSS Beauty), so I'll get over it -- contact page is long in the right. I dont see the bug mentioned above (XP, FF, 1.0.7).

Granted I'm not from the USA and it's obviously a bit exclusive (perhaps it's an 'if you don't know where it is, you can't afford it' job), but it seemed a glaring ommission to me.
Having got to the bottom of the page, I clicked on the contact link, which still provided no clue and I had to head back up to the top for the Location link (people don't always read the menus first).
It can't help SEO either - what if I'm searching for 'exclusive condo Philadelphia'?
All that nit-picking from a minor detail aside, it is a very nice site that does it's job (apart from the whole location thing) well and without over-complicating (again, aside from the location info).

Personally, i think its a great site, nice colours and diagrams.

This is the bug I am seeing. Again, Win XP, FF 1.0.7
On November 29, 2005 12:25 AM Thame said:OK, I guess no images :D
On November 29, 2005 6:32 AM Nicole said:I like the site layout design itself - very clean. In addition to the cross-browser bugginess, it could definitely use some optimizing for speed though, particularly if they've decided to use flash on all the pages. I'm on a high speed and it lagged a big for me loading. While it wouldn't seem like it at first, there are 43 images that load from the CSS and HTML combined, and 18 when you hit the main page, and the majority of those could be replaced with CSS styling. The ones that stick out to me the most are the top navigation boxes, and the image on the right side of the flash that could be sized down to just the text part and filled in with background color for the rest of that area.

On November 30, 2005 12:45 AM david said:nice look to the site but in my firefox the menu is dropping behid the flash on the first page untill i roll over the on of the buttons... bug???
On November 30, 2005 9:39 AM Eric said:I'm seeing the same error in firefox - the flash image is above the buttons and stays that way.
On December 2, 2005 8:03 AM koen said:The interesting thing happens in FF when you outline all block level elements with the developer toolbar. Suddenly the menu jumps where it's probably intended to be. Without any css change!

On December 14, 2005 1:51 PM Erwin Heiser said:Beautiful site, I'm just a sucker for minimalism like this.
My only gripe is that they uesd flash to display the floorplans, I'm sure this could've been done with simple images as well.
But apart from that: lovely!
