This design transforms a tired 1968 apartment building into a contemporary condominium community in one of Seattle’s hippest urban neighborhoods. In close collaboration with engineers and envelope technicians, PLACE redesigned the building to enhance existing amenities including fabulous views and abundant natural light, while providing systems upgrades for a healthier, more energy-efficient environment. A new entry features a glass and steel canopy, new lighting and signage. Updated unit balconies open up to reveal phenomenal downtown, lake and mountain views; and generous, energy efficient, operable windows replace old single panes. New paint, landscaping and designer kitchens, bathrooms, common areas and interior hallways will beckon visitors - providing a vastly improved experience through minimal means.
