Graceland West condos dig up dirt, let the sun shine in

Click for larger imageWhat’s the best way to make garden-level living bright and cheery? Scoop out some dirt, build a patio and install floor to ceiling windows. It’s a trick we’ve seen all over town, including in Graceland West, at 4309 N Ashland Ave, which houses three new-construction condominiums, each with three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, priced from the $410s. We like the effort but can’t help but wonder how it feels to dine on a patio that’s below grade and surrounded by high brick walls? We can’t shake the image of a “Do Not Feed the Animals” sign posted next to the patio-pit.
