Located in Downtown Seattle, First Hill is the city’s first neighborhood. The historic neighborhood is also known as “Pill Hill” for its abundance of medical and research institutions, such as Swedish Hospital and Virginia Mason Medical Center. First Hill is also home to Seattle University and the famed Frye Art Museum. Defined by steep hills, First Hills juxtaposes the old and new with historic brick apartment buildings, modern high-rise apartments, and charming houses. First Hill is extremely walkable and there are a variety of shops and restaurants in the neighborhood for residents to enjoy. Living in First Hill also places resident minutes from some of the city’s most popular hotspots like Capitol Hill, the International District, and Lower Queen Anne, home of the iconic Space Needle. First Hill has several rail stations and Interstate 5 runs on the western edge of the neighborhood making traveling through downtown easy.

Great location and beautiful historical building. If you are a city person, this is the place to go. At the intersection of capital hill, first hill and downtown, really there is no place like this in Seattle.

I'm a current resident and it's a nightmare to live here. The building is very old and walls are extremely thin. Any given moment in the unit, you'll hear talking, TV, music, sirens from the streets, doors shutting, footsteps in the hallways... everything. The worst is the footsteps from above units if you're unfortunate enough to have a unit above you. I hear creaks and squeaks of old wooden floors from every step the person in the unit above me takes. Thankfully I travel often so I'm rarely home and just needed temporarily housing. I can't wait to get out of here and I would never recommend this apartment building to anyone.
