First Light is Seattle’s newest and tallest major residential condominium tower, completed in 2024 at 300 Virginia St in Belltown.

With 459 residences, First Light is the largest new condo delivery in Seattle in several years and a significant addition to the city’s ownership housing inventory.

The amenity package is exceptional, anchored by a rooftop pool that is the only one of its kind in Seattle’s condo market. Additional amenities include a full fitness center, sky terrace on the 48th floor, a dramatic cantilevered rooftop lookout, concierge service, catering kitchen, and secured garage parking. HOA fees ranging from $700 to $2,000 per month reflect the building’s new construction quality and comprehensive service level.
