Victorian Row Apartments

The late 19th century Victorian Row Apartments are historically and architecturally significant as the only pre-1900 apartments existing in Seattle today in unaltered condition. The building was slated for demolition until 1993 when Historic Seattle entered into a limited partnership with the owner. Tax credits were utilized to rehabilitate the building into 14 units of low-income housing.

The Victorian Row Apartments building was designated a Seattle Landmark in 1979. The property was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

Historic Seattle sold 1234 South King Street in November 2025 to SCIDpda (Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation and Development Authority) and placed a preservation easement on the property.
