Overview

This extensive, apartment complex stood just above Elliott Avenue NW, a major artery into Seattle's Downtown area. Due to its proximity to the central business district, residential real estate near Elliott Avenue NW became increasingly developed during the 2000s and 2010s, replacing commerical and industrial tenants.

Building History

Portland architectural firm, GGLO, designed this 204-unit apartment complex on a site once occupied by the Sons of Norway Hall #2, between 1951 and 1983 and The Mountaineers, from 1983 until 2008. Architects Tom Sheldon and Mark Sindell were the lead GGLO designers on this tower, given a LEED Silver rating for new construction by the US Green Building Council.
