Questions
Questions about Watermark Tower
Is Watermark Tower the same as Watermark Residential?
Yes. Watermark Residential Condominium is the name on the county record for the homes. City permits and the UW architecture database call the building Watermark Tower.
Is Watermark Tower a condo or an apartment building?
The homes are condominiums, so owners own them. Some owners may rent theirs out. The offices and shops on the lower five floors are one commercial unit in the same condominium.
How many homes are in Watermark Tower?
The county record describes 93 homes, 1 commercial unit and a manager's unit. Its current list shows 87 homes. Some homes have been joined into larger ones, and city permits show several of these.
Who designed and built Watermark Tower?
Bumgardner Architects designed it, and John H. Sellen Construction built it from 1981 to 1983. HistoryLink names Cornerstone Columbia Development as the developer.
Where does the old entry on First Avenue come from?
The main entry, with its decorated door frame and pediment, came from the Puget Sound Mill Building, a 1924 building nearby. It was reused whole. Some of that building's terra cotta covers part of the first floor at the southeast corner.
What should I ask the association before buying in Watermark Tower?
Ask for the monthly dues and what they cover, the latest reserve study, and any special assessment, planned or being paid off. Ask about the rental and pet rules, whether parking and storage come with the home, and whether the association is in a lawsuit. For this building, also ask: The offices and shops are one commercial unit. How are dues, repairs and votes split between that unit and the homes? A 2026 city permit covers elevator work. Is it finished, and was it paid from the reserves or by a special assessment? Who manages the building, and how do owners reach them? When you are serious about a home, I get the association's documents and read them with you.
How do I see a home in Watermark Tower?
Tell me which home and when you are free. I set up the visit. Seeing a home with me costs you nothing.
Where do I find the building's rules and dues?
In the association's documents. When you are serious about a home, I get them for you and read them with you. Look at the reserve study and the meeting notes.
