The Building Story
Queen Anne concrete, with a documented renewal story
Harbor House is the 11-story condominium at 521 5th Avenue W in Uptown, on the lower slope of Queen Anne. Constructed in 1963, the building has a concrete and steel structure and a quieter end-of-street setting near Kinnear Park. Documented homes include covered balconies and water or skyline outlooks, with the view changing by floor and direction.
RDH, the project’s building-envelope consultant and construction manager, documents a 2024 renewal that replaced selected window-wall stacks, renewed exterior sealants and included targeted concrete and masonry repairs. This gives buyers a concrete maintenance history to investigate. Secure entry, two elevators and garage parking are described in NWMLS marketing. Buyers should review the completed project records, warranties and current financial obligations, then verify the parking and storage associated with the specific residence.
