Northwest of Ordinary: Inside Kirkland Tower’s Residence 700
There is a particular hour on the Vancouver Waterfront when the pace of the day gives way and the skyline begins to glow. On the seventh floor of Kirkland Tower at 590 Waterfront Way, Residence 700 faces it directly, from the living room and from a private balcony. It is a simple idea, well executed: put the living space where the evening is.
A floor plan with nothing to prove
At 1,121 square feet, this one-bedroom-plus-den condominium gets the essentials right. Engineered hardwood runs underfoot. The kitchen centers on a quartz waterfall island, with a built-in refrigerator and a gas range. A gas fireplace anchors the living room, and northwest-facing windows bring in city views and long evening light. The den adapts to the way you live: a home office, a studio, a media room, or a guest room when you need one. Everything sits on one level, with a walk-in shower, an in-unit washer and dryer, central air, and an assigned garage space with a stacking lift.
A building built to be left
If you travel often or divide your time between homes, the building does much of the work. A concierge receives the deliveries and the guests. Monthly dues cover the commons, concierge, exterior maintenance, sewer, and trash, so there is no lawn to mow and no gutters to clear. Lock the door for a month and come back to find everything as you left it.
Residents share a rooftop sky lounge with fire features, a clubroom, and a fitness center. Direct interior access connects the tower to Hotel Indigo, with El Gaucho, 13 Coins, and the Witness Tree rooftop bar on site, so dinner out can begin without leaving the building.
The waterfront at the front door
Step outside and Vancouver Waterfront Park and boutique shopping are moments away. Downtown Portland and Portland International Airport are a short drive across the river.
The number worth knowing
Residence 700 carries a transferable property tax abatement through 2031. If you weigh the full cost of ownership rather than the list price alone, that is a meaningful advantage, and one I am glad to walk through with you line by line.
See it in the right light
Residence 700 is offered at $975,000, with immediate occupancy and furnishings negotiable. Photographs help, but this home makes its case in person, ideally late in the day. I am happy to arrange a late-afternoon appointment so you can judge the light for yourself.
