The View

Every morning, the mountain
is your first sight.

From Mt. Rainier in the south to the Port of Tacoma in the east and Commencement Bay to the northeast — the view from the sixth floor wraps 270 degrees around you. Unobstructed. Permanent. Yours.

The Residence

Designed for those who
refuse ordinary.

There is only one unit like this in the building. On a floor of just five residences, Unit 605 occupies a position no other unit can claim — a true architectural penthouse with 1,760 square feet of single-level interior living and an additional 1,000 square feet of private wrap-around terrace, the largest on the sixth floor by a significant margin.

Step outside from the living room, kitchen, den, or second bedroom and you are standing above Downtown Tacoma with an unobstructed 270-degree panorama. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring that same view inside across every principal living space.

The renovated kitchen features premium stone countertops, a full tile backsplash, and a complete KitchenAid suite including built-in refrigerator, oven, and microwave. The open-concept layout flows directly to the terrace.

What separates this residence from every other penthouse in the market: no shared walls with any neighboring unit, a semi-private elevator serving just two residences, and a building floor plan that makes the sixth floor functionally inaccessible to the rest of the building. This lives precisely like a private home — with none of the maintenance.

The Details

Everything considered.

Semi-Private Elevator
The south elevator serves only Unit 604 and Unit 605. Two residences. One elevator. The privacy of a private home.
No Shared Walls
