Condo Owner Getting that Alone Feeling Down on the Waterfront

March 11th, 2010 by Rachel Pritchett

Jerry McDonald, who lives in the condominiums on Bremerton’s redeveloped waterfront, told Port of Bremerton commissioners this week his unit has lost $100,000 in value since he purchased it, and is anxious to stop the bleeding.

He suggested commissioner do a couple of things to spur interest in the area, including designating four parking sports for people who want to drive by and look at the condos. Right now, there’s no place for prospective condo buyers to park, he said.

McDonald also suggested the port look to a collective approach to advertise the downtown Bremerton waterfront.

The idea was not lost on port Commissioner Bill Mahan, who suggested to new port marketing person Chris Case to take notice of McDonald’s remarks.

Case, by the way, is now on the job.
