Building Highlights
The Building Story
Luxe is a small seven-story condominium at 500 5th Ave W on the Uptown edge of Lower Queen Anne, close enough to Seattle Center and the Counterbalance to walk everywhere and small enough that residents know the building rather than just their floor. The original structure dates to the late 1960s, and Metropolitan Homes carried out a comprehensive conversion and renovation around 2007 that reached siding, larger new windows, and electrical and plumbing systems, so it lives newer than its vintage implies.
The building at a glance
Its organizing idea is architectural rather than amenity driven. Homes are arranged around an open glass atrium with common seating that brings daylight deep into the building, and the residence mix runs from one-bedroom and two-bedroom plans up to multilevel penthouse-style layouts. Many homes open to a deck or patio, secure access is reported, and parking is spread across more than one garage area.
