Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue – The Ultimate Success Story!

There’s so much lately about properties in trouble, going bankrupt, or stalled in development that we thought we’d pass along some good news. Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue claims it’s “The West Coast’s Most Successful High-Rise Condominium” and you know what? They’re not kidding. We received word that their $176 million construction loan is now down to only $600,000! They estimate that this loan will be fully repaid with the next closing.  Speaking of which, they celebrated their 100^th closing on September 8^th.

Fifteen Twenty-One is a 38-story luxury high-rise located on 2nd between Pike and Pine Street. Each level is designed to only accommodate 3 to 5 homes ranging from 1,659 to 2,958 sq ft. The property also boasts protected water views over Pike Place Market, with floorplans designed to maximize visual potential.  An Open House is scheduled for Saturday & Sunday, September 18^th & 19^th from 12 -4 .  If you’d like more information about this property and what else makes it so special, just fill out our contact form at this Stroupe Group link.  Cheers!

Lots of Old Condos to Have Lots of New Views

Apparently the decision has been made, and the government has chosen to burry the Alaskan Way viaduct .  Starting from Qwest Field, the new $4.25 billion tunnel is to be constructed under 1st Avenue and exit just a little further north than it currently does.  We would expect those who have purchased at The Florentine, Merrill Place, Our Home Hotel, Hillclimb Court, The Fix, and most of all; The Pomeroy to surely be excited about the plans to unblock their views and significantly reduce the noise.  This could also be really good news for other projects such as Site 17…

DESCRIPTION

Offering high-end hotel, condominium and office space, as well as deluxe retail space at ground level, developers of the 1.2 million-square-foot building at 1913 5th Avenue.  Above the glass-walled base, containing a large atrium, would rise the northern tower, nicknamed Pagoda. It would contain nine floors of hotel space, with 22 floors of condos above that.  Pagoda would be architecturally distinctive on its exterior to distinguish it from the all-residential south tower, nicknamed Heron. Separated from Pagoda by 70 feet, Heron would house 32 stories of condos.  Each sleek, angular tower would be topped by a V-shaped roof over a 50-foot-high combined open-air arboretum, roof garden and enclosed recreation space. Photovoltaic cells and microturbines would generate about 7 percent of the building’s electricity, and cisterns collecting rain would partly offset water use.
