Con-doh!

The east side of Portland is littered with ugly two-story apartment buildings of early '60s vintage. If you live in Portland, you know what I'm talking about: The long, low bricks; the rusted metal stairs; the fading pale paint; the ratty parking lot; the juniper bushes.

So some developer bought the interchangeable ugly apartment block at Southeast 29th and Salmon, slapped some new siding on it, put in new doors, and is selling the apartments as condos for $185,000 a pop.

I wonder if anyone will buy?
