What it’s like to live in New Tacoma
Industrial heritage transforms in New Tacoma, where historic warehouses and commercial buildings find new purpose as urban lofts and creative spaces near the port. Residents enjoy the developing waterfront with its museums, restaurants, and walking paths alongside the working port's continued operations. Though ongoing redevelopment means some services remain under development, pioneers appreciate participating in the neighborhood's evolution from industrial center to urban community. Many buildings feature impressive adaptive reuse where loading docks become patios and freight elevators serve residential floors, creating distinctive living spaces connecting to Tacoma's commercial history while accommodating contemporary needs.

Central Tacoma
What it’s like to live in Central Tacoma
Creative renters find inspiration in Central Tacoma's historic buildings converted to loft-style apartments, where original factory windows flood spaces with natural light perfect for artistic pursuits. The neighborhood's walkable distance to both 6th Avenue's food scene and downtown's theaters eliminates evening parking challenges. Many buildings feature unexpected details like exposed brick and timber beams absent from newer construction, while rental rates remain significantly below Seattle prices despite comparable amenities. Though older buildings sometimes feature quirky heating systems, the Peninsula winds create natural cooling even during summer heat waves—a particular advantage for top-floor units with cross-ventilation potential.
