First Release Homes

5th and Madison is the elegant brand new addition to Seattle ’s newest residential neighborhood, the financial district. It is surrounded by some of Seattle ’s best hotels and restaurants including the Fairmount, the W Hotel, Hotel 1000, the Metropolitan Grill and the new Purple Café and Wine Bar. 5th and Madison was designed by architects Ruffcorn Mott Hinthorne Stine and is being built by Turner Construction. 5th and Madison is targeting a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED™) certification. Its innovations include a half acre of street level green space that will be kept lush and beautiful with rainwater collected and stored in underground cisterns. Its windows are among the tallest in the city, nearly floor to ceiling, and almost ten and a half feet tall. The natural light and sunshine that pours in goes well beyond the main living area because these homes are built wide and shallow, instead of long and skinny. Unlike many downtown towers, the bedrooms are on the glass as are the living areas.
