The Hemingway Condominium development is sited along Highland Drive, an exclusive enclave at the north end of Seattle’s historic Capitol Hill neighborhood. When a local developer acquired this property, they recognized site context and respect for its existing neighbors as paramount to project success. To the north of the steeply sloping site lies the St. Mark’s Greenbelt, a forest-like respite in a bustling city. Directly next door is the unique Sam Hill Mansion, built in 1910 and used to host foreign dignitaries and grand social events in the early 20th century. Around the corner on 10th Avenue, elegant condominium townhomes built in 1979 recall the monolithic nature of the commanding Hill Mansion with a nod to Frank Lloyd Wright and Japanese architecture.

The Hemingway Condominium will bring seven elegant residences to this quiet corner, homes designed to meet the needs of urbanites seeking a unique retreat walking distance to the community facilities, shopping, and dining options of Capitol Hill, but away from the nightlife it’s also known for. The residences are a mix of two-bedroom units, some with dens, and each arranged to take advantage of the site’s lush landscape. Besides the neighboring greenbelt, Highland Avenue includes significant tree canopies that enhance the pedestrian experience and privacy for neighboring condominium and apartment communities. Hemingway is scheduled to break ground in late 2020 and be available for purchase in early 2022.
