The North End is one of the best neighborhoods in Boston for finding a loft. That’s because so many of the super-historic neighborhood’s buildings started life as warehouses or factories. That includes 63 Atlantic Avenue, which was a manufacturing plant for Prince pasta until the 1970s. It’s now a 40-unit condo building.

Unit 5D is among that 40. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom enjoys vestiges of that industrial past, too, with high ceilings and large windows. The 1,012-square-foot space also includes central air and washer-dryer hookups. The building has a shared roof deck as well.

It’s retailing now through Douglas Elliman for $899,000, or $815 a square foot. That’s on the upper end of the city’s condo prices. The latest figures from the Greater Boston Association of Realtors put the city’s median condo sales price at $700,000.
