About This Building
Olympic Block is a 45-unit historic condominium building in Pioneer Square, constructed in 1893. As one of Seattle's oldest surviving residential buildings, Olympic Block stands among the most historically significant condo addresses in the Pacific Northwest. The building predates Seattle's 1889 Great Fire reconstruction era and has witnessed more than 130 years of the city's history.
Pioneer Square's National Historic District status means Olympic Block's exterior and structural character are protected as part of Seattle's architectural heritage. The building's 1893 masonry construction delivers materials and proportions that are impossible to replicate in any contemporary building: handmade brick, heavy timber, and the solid scale of late-Victorian commercial architecture.
At 45 units in a building of this age, Olympic Block requires buyers to conduct particularly careful HOA financial due diligence. A building of this vintage has been through multiple major building systems cycles -- plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and structural -- and the HOA's reserve fund and capital planning must reflect the unique demands of maintaining a 130-year-old structure.
