Bad area Chinatown 😂😂 to much crime there 🤮

At 3:12; seeing the "yoga room", my first thought; would I be allowed to do "katas" (forms) there? ;-) It's a moot point; I can't afford it.

At 4:00; is that water on the floor, from where? I like the idea of a "bike room", especially with Pike Place Market nearby to pick up groceries, but if I had a three-wheel bike how would I get up those stairs (16:10)? ;-) Must be nice to be rich? ;-D

When you say "more affordable" put that into dollars please

Arghhhh, the glass "railings" on the pool balcony are giving me acrophobia just looking at them LOL

It's a beautiful building!

Could you rent these?

The developers put in over the top amenities to lure buyers and the buyers through the HOA fees get to maintain all of those amenities. One thing I can say, the elopers don't install these facilities with economy in mind and over time, will cost big bucks to maintain, repair or replace.

Great drug ridden neighborhood

The kitchen is dinky, it's awful.

It is beautiful, but isn't the pool only usable like 3 months a year?

A building soon to be full of useful idiot$.

nice finishes, but i would like the south east unit with the west outdoor space

Was literally looking at a unit in this building. Good video on it.

Definitely like the south-facing views of downtown. I wonder if any of the views are protected.

Rad. Whens it open?

I have 7 dollars. Take it or leave it

Amazing building, I can’t wait to see the models in detail.

Beautiful building, but could you imagine paying $1 million for a two bedroom apartment that literally opens up onto Skid Row at ground level? Third and Virginia seriously wtf were they thinking? Westbank is actively working on a huge two tower project right at the edge of SLU and Cap Hill…. I feel like that would be a much more desirable location.

Beautiful, but the primary bedroom in the 2bd looks tiny, no room for a console or anything at the foot of the bed 😞

Considering its a high tech building does it have a media control panel in the unit to control the ethernet/phone/cable jacks

Hi Matt Thank you for sharing! Very nice : )

Oh wait ! Yes I did😢

I heard no mention of a price😂

Nice to get a look inside, always in the vicinity when I do business at Met Park across from it.

I thought Seattle House that’s being built next to Spire is a condo building. Or is it going to be an office building?

I lived at The Harbor Steps southeast tower in downtown Seattle for 11 years, moved into the building the day after they were awarded their Certificate of Occupancy. Given, Harbor Steps are (were?) rentals not condos, but even so. What I can tell you about the so called "amenities" a building offers is that they are rarely used and figure hugely into the cost of rent/sale price. The larger and more extensive the square footage the "amenities" occupy over actual income producing square footage, the higher the cost of rent/condo. For public access spaces that are very rarely used. Yeah, it's nice to have those spaces available when needed. Harbor Steps has/had a "theater room" which I booked 1x during my 11 years residency for a small party of 6 and as it happened we were unable to view the live TV feed via cable we had gathered to see together, due to Harbor Steps basic cable not having access to that channel, despite my checking and double checking with management to make sure it WOULD be available. I used the gym exactly 1x and as the windows into the gym were directly across from my unit, I can tell you it was vacant nearly 24/7. I swam in the pool 1x, I used the public spa/hot tub 1x...during and 11 year residency. Folks who live in these residential towers don't, from my own personal experience, use these so-called "amenities". They are just wasted and very expensive space built into these places as "sale points" for the investors to write off on and which n turn grossly inflate the cost of the living space in the rest of the building. Buyers like to think they will actually use these spaces, which is why they are built, but in the end they rarely do. They already have set in place habits about entertaining and fitness. They are not going to quit their gym and start exercising alone when they are used to doing the gym with buddies at a place they all meet at routinely. They will entertain in their own homes until they host a crowd too large, then they will book out a larger space, usually a restaurant, that will include the cost of staff. I lived at one of the highest rent properties in Seattle and I learned this about the people who were my neighbors.

Affordable 😂😂 I bet the HOAs 500+

Tell us how you really feel about the unit on the south end.

I love this place

I loved that building when it went up and was looking to buy. But I noticed that big two buildings was going to be built and around the other side is a parking lot that will be a tall building too. Losing all your views and values.

How much are HOA fees? Doesn’t look like you can profitably use it as an investment property even if rates could get back to 3-4%. And even for personal use one can buy an older house in Seattle for the same money or a 3 bed new townhome much cheaper. It looks very beautiful but makes no financial sense to buy unless you have so much money you just don’t care.

This condo is in the heart of Chinatown. One block away from Junkies smokin crack and Fent 😂😂.!! SMH

Land lords don’t know what affordable housing means

Seattle will never be the same for me after COVID era. 😒

Wtf??? Its only affordable to rich people....its a high crime area...public transportation is a Petrie dish of virus and desease as well as violence

Hi Matt Good comparison and summary of these buildings. I enjoyed the video. Thank you!

Why do you think their won't be any condo projects for the next 5-10 years?

It’s a good thing there’s a good amount of amenities. Once clients find out that area is a hot bed of activities, they’ll never want to leave that bubble. This place would’ve been great 20-30 years ago. It’s only two short blocks away from one my favorite Seattle hidden gems. Tucked in the Japanese block of CID. Panama Hotel, Tea & Coffee. A place that use to be open as late as 9pm. Now, only open till 4pm. Largely because of the high minimum wage and safety in Seattle today.

Seriously? 1 mil is considered "affordable"?

Great tour. But I guess there is always a reason that they didn't sold all their homes since 2018 lolll

Wished the camera person not pan all over the place when the guy giving N, S, E, W facing directions. Also show more stationary outside views be nice.

“Yup”

Why would anyone wanna live in Seattle? Hella tent city , and fentanyl everywhere.

Love that sunny view..🎅🎅🎅🥰🥰

Is there additional storage outside the units?

Tswizz doesn’t read so...

Cheapest units is $500k.. these apartments look like your avg $2200/m studio. $500k right now is what.. $3400/month? PLUS hoa... living in these buildings makes zero sense from a financial aspect - kind of a joke really.
