About the Building
Continental Place is a 1981 tower of 125 residences at 2125 1st Avenue, on the seam between Belltown and Pike Place. It belongs to the generation of Seattle towers built with generous floor plates, so the homes tend to be larger than what newer construction offers at a similar price point.
The amenity set is full-service and long established: 24-hour doorman and concierge, indoor pool and spa, fitness center, a private garden terrace, club room and conference area, a guest suite and secure resident parking.
Residence Character
- Elliott Bay view potential is strong from many homes but varies by stack and floor.
- Larger original floor plans are a genuine differentiator against newer Belltown inventory.
- Condition varies widely by residence because renovation history is owner by owner.

No Rental Cap ≠ Short-Term Rental
