Considering ACG Equities was able to acquire the remaining 120 condos, retail and office space for approximately $14.5 million, I would suspect the new condo pricing to be in the $145/ft neighborhood. Sales in the $145/ft range would most likely net ACG a $65/ft profit over acquisition cost. If you are considering purchasing a condo in 5th & Main under the new pricing structure, it would be my privilege to work for you. In an effort to prove that I am not only the most informed, but also best equipped broker to represent and negotiate on your behalf (at no cost to you), here is just a portion of my exhaustive analysis. This is the pricing just prior to ACG’s procedural foreclosure:
Inexplicably, ACG has engaged the original sales team to continue with condo sales, missing an opportunity to fully renew a rather miserable development reputation of underachievement (I did not pursue the listing – I am an exclusive condo buyer’s representative).

Update: 5th & Main’s FHA status remains “Withdrawn” according to the HUD website. This means that low 3.5% down payment loans may not be available to new condo buyers. The zoning for the project remains mixed-use in the urban zoning overlay.
