  1. The only price that really matters is the final sales price. Asking price is irrelevant. By this standard, the Cranberry Street house @ $6.2 mln does set a high *above* similar properties in the Heights in 2006-07.

  2. By the way DIBS — I’ve been seriously contemplating moving to Philadelphia. I’ve been checking the job listings in my ‘industry’ down that way. Unfortunately there are only about 4 such employers in the city… but one of them is huge.
