I am a leasing professional with Riverstone Residential group. I was lucky enough to get acquainted with the Belroy as my first "normal" property.
The Belroy is a 1930 William Bain building in Capitol Hill, WA. Originally it was a hotel, so all of the hallways have room service boxes outside of each apartment. 
I had this one apartment E31, absolutely beautiful! Bay window, hardwood floors, sunset views of the Cascade Mountains, the Space Needle, and South Lake Union. Yet, for some reason I had to show it to about 10 different people and every time I showed this apartment the back door just would not open, I pulled and wiggled, and jerked to no avail.
Of course, the time the door opened I rented the place! At last! Right?
When I went back to show them the "room service" box, I opened it to find an untouched advertisement from Best's Apparel, A Granger Tobacco can, and a green depression glass vase from 1940! To say the lease as a second hand store junkie I was ecstatic!

I love the Belroy, I no longer work there but I know it is being taken care of and will be absolutely beautiful when the renovations are finished in Spring of 2012.
