Testimonials

Maria Boyd fell in love with the Soho Lofts in the East Village and was determined to buy one. This August, she was the first to move in.

"I saw the plans real early, and decided, oh, I gotta do that," she said. "She liked the character of the East Village. She loved that the development was split between retail and residential, with quirky little shops so close to her front door. She liked that it was in an urban area, but was still clean and safe."

Quote from Cover Story of juice, October 5, 2005 in article highlighting Downtown Loft Living

"I love living in the SOHO Lofts! SOHO residents have many benefits including convenient access to transportation, cultural & sporting events, boutiques, as well as an early morning latte' on the ground floor on the way to work! The SOHO Lofts is definitely a place where open minded intellectuals gather."

"Sure, anyone touring the SOHO Lofts can see our building is one of the most beautiful structures in the city. The building offers a calssic look with all the modern amenities that give one comfort, quiet, and convenience. But, the SOHO Lofts is far more than just a place to live, it represents a refreshing way of life we like to call "Park the Car!" We love being within walking distance to the great concerts by the river, to every touring Broadway show, and to some of the best shopping in the city. To be able to stroll down the street and be in the center of every major city festival, to be mere block from the Y, and have the Farmer's Market and night life of Court Ave just five minutes away is incredibly liberating. I mean, I guess you can buy elsewhere, buy why would you want to settle for second best?"

"...On behalf of the Downtown Community Alliance I want to extend my heartiest congratulations for the progress you have made on the SOHO Lofts. Your ability to maintain your vision and stay focused on a great product for the East Village is remarkable; I wish we could clone you. Best wishes for continued success on this project; I look forward to working on the next ten deals with you."

"It is exciting to know the Soho Development project is underway.  As a Board Member of the Historic East Village, as well as the Immediate Past President of the East Des Moines Chamber, I have been very impressed with Tony DeAngelo and Bob Ligouri's presentations of their project.  It's also important to know their ties with the eastside, thereby knowing the importance of this project to each of them.  We welcome them to the "Village" and look forward to seeing the completed project for we know it will be a major asset to the community."
