Odin Apartments

The 303-unit Odin Apartments is located in Seattle’s resurgent Ballard neighborhood, a waterside working community influenced by Nordic settlers and the timber and maritime industries. Named for the chief god and All-father of Norse mythology, Odin’s Nordic sensibility translates throughout the building. For example, birch trees and expansive windows allow natural light to saturate interiors. Other dynamic expressions include an etched Viking ship, communal fire pits and lobby lighting emulating the Aura Borealis. Extensive amenities and a Walk Score of 98 give residents everything they need within a one-mile radius.
