Gallery Condominium – Belltown

The Gallery Condominium at 2911 2nd Avenue in Belltown is close to selling out the building. After an auction and a buy now event earlier this year, the 233-unit Gallery has 14 new homes remaining for sale and is offering a 3% buyer bonus incentive. Current prices range from $230,000 to $405,000.

I took a look at a few of the remaining open one-bedroom homes and prices have reduced more than $100,000 from their 2008 levels…about a 31% decrease overall.

Amenities at Gallery include concierge services, two guest suites, a supper club with a private dining room and Sky Lounge, a lobby that features rotating exhibits by local artists and two rooftop view decks with grilling areas.
