Seattle & Condotels - the Imploding Explosion?

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Greater Seattle

As I was writing my newest condo review post on my condo blog, it struck me that I had more to say about the condo / hotel projects planned or under construction in Seattle. So much so, my mind started to rant and I thought it best to let it out here rather than on Seattle Condos and Lofts.

In writing my the post for AVA - a 38-story condo/hotel project, I had counted eight new condo/hotel projects in the downtown core. These include the newly opened Madison Tower (Hotel 1000) and the 2200 (Pan Pacific), those under construction - Olive8 (Grand Hyatt) and Four Seasons, and those on the drawing board - 2nd & Pike, 600 Denny (Hyatt Place), 1 Hotel and AVA (Executive).

The question is, has Seattle reached a saturation point with increased hotel rooms through hotel expansion (e.g. the Sheraton) as well as the addition of at least 8 condo/hotels?

Seattle is starting to sound a lot like Las Vegas. -Charles

Personally, I just don't think Seattle has the market/demographics to support the higher-end developments.
