(thanks to reader C for the tip) If you are desperate to own the nine lots along Potomac Avenue, Ninth, and L that
were foreclosed on earlier this year, you've got a second shot. They were picked up at auction
in October for $2.461 million, but apparently that sale has fallen through, because the lots are once again on the Alex Cooper Auctioneers web site, scheduled to be
auctioned again on January 21. The properties were owned by ICP Partners, who defaulted on a $2.3 million loan in 2009. ICP tried hard earlier this year to
drum up interest in these lotsplus the gray building at Eighth and Potomac that houses Quiznos (which is
not part of this foreclosure), after a previous sale attempt in 2008 went nowhere. ICP paid $9 million for all 10 properties in 2006.
