Buying a Condo at Canal Place 2 in Lowell, MA: What to Know

Canal Place 2 is the association at 200 Market Street that loft buyers dream about first. One of three separate condominium associations at the address, it holds the multilevel homes the complex is famous for: the 29 series lofts with mezzanines and ship's ladders, three level homes with canal view primary suites, and, at the other end, compact one bedroom lofts that make this the most varied price ladder at 200 Market. Chris Doherty knows the building from the inside. He owns a home here himself, Unit B37.

What You Get in a Canal Place 2 Home

The range is the story. A one bedroom loft of about 500 square feet sold here recently at $240,000. A three bedroom, two bath multilevel loft of nearly 1,800 square feet, with two bedrooms on the second level and a primary suite with canal views on the third, was listed at $349,900. Between those poles sit the 29 series lofts, with soaring beamed ceilings, mezzanine levels, stone and glass walls, and light pouring in from two levels. Doherty Properties listed Unit 29A at $474,900, the highest asking price the complex has seen. The detailed building profile is on our Canal Place 2 page.

Why the Location Works

Canal Place stands over the Pawtucket Canal in the Hamilton Canal District, inside the historic mill landscape of downtown Lowell. Merrimack Repertory Theatre, the Tsongas Center, LeLacheur Park, Boarding House Park concerts, and the Lowell Folk Festival every July fill the calendar close by. Middlesex Community College is right downtown, UMass Lowell is a short distance away, and the Lowell commuter rail station covers the Boston run. The complex offers direct access to the city parking garage, which solves the downtown parking question.
