The Harvard Crest features 34 apartments, including 1-bedrooms, and extra large studios with a unique, large wardrobe closet most tenants use as a bedroom. Many of the kitchens have an old world charm feel with tiled sinks and vintage iceboxes repurposed as cabinets. The units feature original hardwood flooring, that is cared for and refinished on a regular basis. The Harvard Crest is conveniently located just 1 block away from Broadway, one of Seattle's richest, and most iconic streets, full of colleges, museums, restaurants, and trendy hole-in-the-wall shops.
