There’s a new tower making waves in South Lake Union. The Skyglass Apartments high-rise brings a striking addition to the Seattle skyline with an undulating exterior that looks like you can rappel down it on a boogie board.

Construction at the 31-story development at 757 Thomas St. off Dexter Avenue is currently wrapping up with plans to open the building to residents on Feb. 15.

We strapped on a hardhat to get an early look — here’s what to expect.

Why the funky design?

Architecture firm Hewitt was inspired to create a design that would mesh well with nearby Elliott Bay and the surrounding environment. The idea was for the building to look as if it were in motion when the sun and clouds pass across the reflective glass.

The angular, zig-zaggy exterior also creates a variety of apartment layouts, so no more than three units are the same. Residents will get much different views depending on what floor they live on.

All the luxe perks

Thanks to Skyglass’s location just outside the downtown Seattle core, the vistas that look north offer unobstructed sight lines. Several apartments directly face the Space Needle, which kinda makes it feel like it’s right in your living room. On another side, you get sweeping city views.

Among the towering amenities are an outdoor spa + pool on the roof, a garden terrace with fire pits + barbecue stations, a yoga studio, fitness center, and small dog park (yeah, even the pups get to live it up here).

There's also a co-working space on the ground floor with a colorful mural salvaged from the old Eberharter Commercial building that stood in the location.

Apartment prices at Skyglass range from ~$2,300 for studios up to ~$6,000+ for three-bedroom apartments. They’re still being leased and you can book a tour to get a gander.
