No buyers have taken developer Erik Ekstein up on his offer to include an “Obama contingency clause” in contracts signed before today’s presidential election at Ekstein’s Chelsea condo tower, a spokesperson for the building said. The clause, which could be applied to units at +Art, at 540 West 28th Street, would have allowed purchasers to back out of their deals in the event of a McCain victory. But the option “definitely increased” traffic through the +Art sales office, the spokesperson said. Units in the building start at $520,000.
