Neighborhood

Perched on a tree-filled hill, Queen Anne is one of Seattle's most famous neighborhoods. It is named for the elegant Victorians that once dominated the landscape. Today, only a handful of the Queen Anne homes remain. As one of Seattle's largest neighborhoods, Queen Anne is often referred to in smaller sections, such as North Queen Anne or Lower Queen Anne.

Extending from the north end of Downtown Seattle to Lake Union's Fremont Cut, Queen Anne changes as you travel through the neighborhood -- the end closest to downtown contains the Space Needle, Chihuly Garden and Glass, the Museum of Pop Culture, and Key Arena. The north end is a little more residential and is home to Seattle Pacific University. Be sure to visit Kerry Park for amazing views of Downtown Seattle and Mount Rainier.

Mold, mildew, noise, unsafe

Big mistake moving here. Frequent break-ins, everyone has mold problems, (staff paints over), fires on the slopes threaten safety, loudest place I've ever lived. Every sound in apartments next to me is heard, above and below me, too. Management says quiet place. Not true.

Think twice

Property is not well-maintained. Management is for the most remarkably unresponsive. The default response if the manager does answer is to blame the tenant in the most absurdly, ridiculous ways. No soundproofing. You will hear everything in other units. Loud blaring music at all hours even though apparently quiet hours. Safety is a major concern. Cars routinely broken into, one guy had his motorcycle stolen. Management refuses to put in serveillace. For years inside there were transients roaming the halls, stealing packages, urinating in the stairwell, breaking into storage units. Management did nothing and called us spoiled whiners until some people called the city.

A nightmare experience from start to finish

Was told it was a quiet place prior to signing lease. After moving in, learned guy above us blasted music daily through subwoofer. Manager yelled at us for knocking on his door and politely asking him to be quiet. Had two floods. One with water pouring through light fixture and both ceiling fans. One ruined most of my possessions. Tenants after the subwoofer guy were drug addict brother and drunk sister who scream, sang, chased each other, at least three times a week at 2am. After 6 months of little sleep I crashed my car. Ended up with chronic mono and am still sick. Guy in unit next to us smoked pot almost constantly, Would at times make a big show out of smoking outside to fool management but we had three years of inhaling his weed. Mold and water damage everywhere in the building. Most texts, letters, calls were ignored. After 5 hellish years we are finally getting out.
