I read in the Pacific Northwest Magazine (in the Seattle Times) a few years ago about how during the depths of the 72-74 Boeing-fueled recession in Seattle, views carried no premium whatsoever. They profiled this husband and wife who had a property in West Seattle commanding a 270 degree water view, and they paid peanuts for it really.

So I'm hoping that happens again, although as usual, I should be careful of what I wish for.
