The Building Story

An Eastlake address with a western outlook

Riva at Lake Union is a 30-home condominium at 1550 Eastlake Avenue E, near the transition between Eastlake and South Lake Union. The seven-story building offers one- and two-bedroom homes, with the western exposure providing some residences a view toward the lake and the surrounding city. The address is near Lake Union; this profile does not describe the property itself as waterfront.

One documented corner residence has a wraparound deck with outlooks toward Lake Union and the Aurora Bridge. That combination of outdoor space and orientation is more useful to compare than a broad building-level view claim, since the outlook changes by floor and side. Neighborhood cafes, marinas and lake access points form part of the surrounding Eastlake setting. Published records differ between 1996 and 1997 for construction, so a single year is not stated until the association or original permit record resolves the difference.
