This time next year, the first residents of The Emerald will be moved into their brand new luxury condominiums. Construction of the 40-story tower is well underway, and a topping off celebration was held in late July. Units on the lower floors have begun to take shape — some have even seen the installation of flooring, cabinetry and appliances. Roughly one-third of the homes have already been sold, but a wide selection of studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and penthouse suites are still available. Prices start from the $500,000s.

Developed by Daniels Create World Seattle LLC, The Emerald features 265 residences that offer breathtaking views of Elliot Bay, the Space Needle, Olympic Peninsula, Mt. Rainier and beyond. The interiors reflect the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest with wide-plank European white oak hardwood flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows and custom wood cabinetry. 

Kitchens are equipped with Bosch stainless steel appliances, including gas cooktops with integrated hoods, wall ovens and dishwashers with panelized doors. Expect quartz countertops and matching backsplashes in warm and cool color palettes, as well as polished chrome faucets by Kohler.

The spa-inspired bathrooms are complete with custom wood vanities topped with quartz, large format porcelain floor and wall tile, MAAX® white alcove bathtubs, walk-in showers enclosed with frameless glass, and TOTO® toilets with soft-close seats. Other notable features include Whirlpool® washers and dryers, operable, double pane windows, and walk-in closets (as per plan).

The Emerald offers exceptional onsite amenities that cater to wellness, recreation and socializing. Work up a sweat in the fitness center with an open-air terrace or perfect your King Pigeon Pose in the yoga studio. A full-floor rooftop retreat boasts al fresco dining areas, barbecues, a cozy fire pit, and comfortable lounge furniture. On drizzly days, take the party inside to the Olympic Room, which provides panoramic water and mountain views. The nearby City View Room has a catering kitchen and quieter areas from which residents can work from home.

On the third floor, there’s a resident guest suite that’s perfect for hosting out-of-town visitors, a pet spa and outdoor pet run, and an additional open-air terrace. The ground floor is home to a welcoming lobby, guest reception area and convenient retail spaces. The Emerald uses a Latch keyless entry system and offers electric vehicle charging stations as well as Envoy on-demand luxury electric vehicle carshare.

The Emerald’s iconic downtown address at 121 Stewart Street means residents will be just one block from Pike Place Market and steps from the bustling Seattle waterfront. The neighborhood offers easy connections to the tech campuses and offices in South Lake Union. Simply hop on the South Lake Union streetcar or one of the many bus routes that pass by The Emerald every few minutes. For those who prefer getting around by car, access to the freeway is just down the street, allowing you to reach SeaTac International Airport less than 30 minutes.

The Emerald is now selling, with occupancy slated for Summer 2020. Visit the sales gallery at 1901 4th Avenue, open daily from 11am to 5pm. Be sure to register online to learn more about purchasing at The Emerald or to receive updates.
