About First Hill

First Hill rises directly east of downtown — historically known as Pill Hill for the dense cluster of major hospitals (Swedish, Virginia Mason, Harborview) that anchor the neighborhood. The area combines medical employment, mid-rise residential, and quick walking access to both downtown and Capitol Hill.

Housing is overwhelmingly condo, ranging from older mid-century buildings to newer towers. Buyers are typically medical professionals, downtown workers, and urban-lifestyle owners who value the central location and First Hill Streetcar access.
