Nearly $200 per square foot ... for the entire lot.
The “interesting history” amounts to “a very mundane/humble abode survived this long”. I’d not be surprised if its “cheap” status comes from its technical historical status - probably a pile of costs/fines/fees in demolition, if that’s allowed at all; it might require vintage-compliant repair (ex.: grain-matching now-rare wood; replicating antique cheap-ass building materials could be hard).

Which will make this October's fire even more of a shame!
