Our neighborhood is known as the North Slope and is part of the National Historic Register. 24 hours a day you will find people walking, jogging and walking their dogs. The North Slope is filled with incredible 100 year old houses, giant trees and ocean views. No two houses are the same. Some of the best historic homes in Tacoma are here, most were built before 1930.

Bing Crosby was born two block from the condo at 1112 N. J Street, Tacoma.

The Large Mansion next door to the condo is the William Ross Rust House, built in 1905 for William Ross Rust, then President of the Tacoma Smelter and Refining Company.

Proctor District

The Proctor District's charming storefronts and quaint older homes remind me of a small town movie set from 1950. The nearby University of Puget Sound serves as a hub of events and shows. Proctor has several restaurants, coffee shops, two supermarkets (the Metropolitan Market and a Safeway), a library, post office, bowling alley, and the historic Blue Mouse movie theater dating from 1923.

Homes on both the north and south sides of the 6 ave are similar, but the price of homes on the south side of 6th ave are considerably more affordable. 6th Ave is at a crossroads between neighborhoods. 6th Ave Farmers Market that takes place every Tuesday in the spring and summer. 6th Ave. is a 5 min drive or 25 min walk from the condo.

We really enjoyed the deck with the peek-a-boo view of the water, the mature trees and eclectic architecture of the neighborhood and the proximity to some of our favorite Tacoma spots.

Great place to stay in Tacoma.
Great place to stay in Tacoma.
We've stayed in two different units and have had a wonderful time in both. The units are very clean and comfortable. The kitchen works well and the views of Puget Sound, especially early in the mornings, from the balcony on unit 10 are marvelous. The decor is pleasing and the Klimt prints add an elegant touch to the ambience. The owner/manager is efficient, quick to respond to questions and very pleasant to work with. Highly recommended!
