Top Projects by Volume

Project Caveats Share Median PSF vs D26
Castle Green 1 25% $1,414 -7.0%
The Essence 1 25% $1,544 +1.5%
Bullion Park 1 25% $1,575 +3.6%
The Calrose 1 25% $2,063 +35.7%

Castle Green led with 1 caveats (25% of all district resale) at a median $1,414 psf — 7% below the district median. The Essence and Bullion Park followed with 1 and 1 caveats respectively. Concentration in a few projects usually signals strong secondary-market liquidity — these PSF figures are your most current real-world price anchors. Concentrated activity at one project means better price discovery there than anywhere else in the district right now.
