The Building Story
The former Richmond Paper building as loft homes
The Lofts at 210 Third Avenue South occupies the former Richmond Paper Company building in Pioneer Square. Historic-district records date it to 1904, and current residential records identify it as a five-story condominium building. The specific address is essential when searching: “The Lofts” is a common description, but here it names a distinct property.
The warehouse origin remains evident in documented homes with exposed brick, substantial timber beams, original fir flooring and tall ceilings. Individual residences differ in their renovations and window arrangements, so those details should be confirmed in the unit being considered. The building also appears in city preservation-review materials for proposed window work, reflecting the care required when adapting an older commercial facade for residential use. Buyers seeking this type of loft are comparing the proportions and retained materials of a particular home as well as its place within the historic district.

Good to know
Before choosing a home here
- Inspect the actual condition of retained floors, beams and masonry, including how later renovations meet those materials.
- Review the approval and completion status of window projects and any resulting owner obligations.
- Compare the offered home’s light, ceiling height and bedroom enclosure rather than assuming all lofts share the same layout.
