About Lancaster

HomeApartments in SeattleBroadway Lancaster

The Lancaster is a classic, early 1900s built Capitol Hill gem. This building features large apartments with beautiful hardwood floors and large windows! Our typical studio is 500 square feet and features a large walk in closet that can be used as a sleeping nook. The one bedrooms range from 650 sq feet to nearly 900 sq ft. We are perfectly located just blocks from the Light Rail and Broadway but far enough off the main drag to create a quiet and peaceful living experience!
