Who's Bidding on the Custom House?Who's Bidding on the Custom House?

Not too many people, apparently. We reported in June that the historic US Custom House at 220 NW 8th Avenue was up for auction, and after more than two months, the highest bid is... $275,000. The recommended opening bid was $2.5 million.

The current high bidder goes by the online handle "cstmhse" on the General Services Administration's property auction website. The closing date has not yet been announced.
