Like the Viagra Triangle but wouldn't dream of living there without a fortress to stave off Friday night crowds? Then the triplexes at 1000 N State are a pretty good option. Built in the mid-70s, the inward-turned compound is encircled by a handy 30-foot brick wall (OK, there is parking within). It's a distinctly medieval touch that suggests the area was something quite different 30 years ago (although it wasn't Calcutta). Hitting the MLS this week is one of the 4/3.5 triplex units, measuring 4,000 square feet. And one really feels the spaciousness in the living room, with its broad dimensions and two-story window wall (never mind that the primary view is of a parking garage). A feature common to other units is the monumental-scale central skylight that cuts through the floorplan. The unit also sports balconies facing onto a common courtyard with swimming pool. And here's some welcome news: the asking price is $899K, a full $350K less than a recently re-listed neighboring unit of the same size.
