Seattle's soon to be tallest residential tower (445 feet), AVA will break ground this fall. Local renowned architect Weber + Thompson and award winning interior designer Garret Cord Werner will be involved in this hotel/condo project on 8th and Pine St.
According to Blaine Weber, principal of Weber + Thompson, "AVA will be a graceful, tall and slender addition to the skyline." Ceiling heights for these homes will range from 9.5 to more than 12 feet, full height windows, air conditioning, and European inspired interiors will focus on entertainment spaces, spacious bathrooms and walk in closets and owner flexibility. Most homes will include either a balcony or a solarium (which can open to outdoors a large terrace or be enclosed to create a sunroom). Sound familiar? That's right, 1521, another W+T recent project has the window solarium feature as well.
The preview event will occur in July, home buyers will have the opportunity to view their offerings and to make a reservation prior to public release. Finishes and interior specification information will also be available during the event.
Other Weber + Thompson projects:
1521
Expo 62
Cristalla
Icon Tower
7th and Westlake

Hi Wendy. Thank you for the compliment. Your blog was actually an inspiration for me when I started:) I looked into the comment you posted regarding AVA and Olive 8. I found that Olive 8 will actually be 10′ taller as recorded in the Emporis database. I also spoke with the PR Representative at Williams Marketing Apparently they’ve had some discussion regarding this topic considering the money the spent on purchasing the rights to be the tallest. I guess they’ve agreed to not waste time/money trying to prove otherwise. However, I’m still waiting to hear back from Weber + Thompson regarding the issue. If Weber + Thompson does have a reason to say they are taller, I would guess that it might be because AVA may be higher above sea level?
