Katy Trail Condos | CandysDirt.com" width="640" height="480" /> Splurge vs. Steal is a new feature on CandysDirt.com. Every week, we look at two properties that offer something in common, but are miles apart in their asking price.   Katy Trail runs through some of the nicest neighborhoods in Dallas, starting at the  American Airlines Center in Victory Park and going to Mockingbird Station near Southern Methodist University . Everyone from runners to in- line skaters hit the trail every day. When a condo along Katy Trail hits the market, you can bet that’s in the description. This is a desirable amenity that opened in 2000 and continues to be developed. When complete, the trail will be 3.5 miles long, connected to the Trinity Strand Trail , with four major entrance plazas , benches, landscaping, and drinking fountains for people and pets.  Today, we’ve found two Katy Trail condos that are less than two miles apart in distance, but are over $250K apart i...

THREE OAKS, Mich. (WNDU) - UPDATE People who escaped an apartment fire in Three Oaks are going back to save any belongings they can carry. 14 families had to evacuate as Hidden Harbor Villas caught fire early Saturday morning . A Michigan State Police fire investigator says the fire started in a vacant apartment on the second floor near the utility closet but he says it's not suspicious and he doesn't believe it was arson. That's not much comfort to the families, only two of whom had renters insurance. Melissa Lawson, one of those affected, said, "We were running to just get out the door.
