UPDATE: My Kitchen lights were fixed shortly after my post here. I would like to thank Joe our maintenance manger for making it happen. Also appreciate the corporate response to my situation. Thank you Diana Norbury at corporate for following this situation.
It's been 5 Stars since I moved here in 2017. But, the 101 losses a star in this updated review. Still a great place to live for privacy and the social eating & beverage events Dee (Property Manager) presents each month. I think they need another helper in maintenance to help part time (PT) with the little things. Joe the Maintenance Manager

I am a current resident at The 101, and I have lived here for the past 4 years. Life at The 101 has been by far the best apartment experience that i’ve had.
The location is a huge selling point, but by far the best part of living here is the staff and management of the building. Dee is the building manager, and Joe is the head of maintenance.
Between the two of them, the building is kept well-maintained, peaceful, and secure.
Maintenance requests (even minor ones) are handled immediately, with no delay. Common areas like hallways and trash rooms, are kept clean. Joe clearly takes pride in

Hello!
I've lived at The 101 for a number of years, and generally enjoyed the experience. Both Dee and Joe are wonderful people.
The complex is no longer livable. A construction site has been erected next door, and the noise and shaking is incredible. It begins, every weekday, at 7:00 a.m. and the beeping/slamming/crashing cannot be drowned out even with earplugs. Just for laughs, I checked the decibel level in my apartment at 8:30 a.m.; with no appliances running and seated at my desk (approximately 15 feet away from a closed sliding-glass door), the decibel meter read a very respectable

Such a great community. The view from the roof is one of the best in the city. If I didn't buy a house, I would have stayed there for longer. Everyone there is nice. I recommend this building for sure!
It's great being able to walk to all the great restaurants, the marina, and all the parks. Perfect location.

This apartment community is an under the table, SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY. It is senior citizen housing, just like its neighbor Merrill Gardens. But unlike Merrill Gardens, it does not advertise as such. I have lived at the The 101 for over a year, and 80% of my neighbors and people I pass in the hall are well over the age of 60. Some of them are in their eighties and nineties and use walkers.
I am not a senior citizen, not even close, and am thoroughly disappointed I was not told what sort of community this was.
EXTREMELY LOUD street noise from drunks and garbage trucks you can hear from all

See Yelp review. Good luck with Pillar Properties. See reviews for other properties to get the idea of what you will be dealing with. Guess cash not king. Only have $450K coming from home sale…..Reply below

My lease is for 4 months, and I have been living here for 6 weeks. I would have left this apt in the first week if there were no penalty as the rent of 3 months. In short, the apt is great except one critical disadvantage --- too much noise from outside during MIDNIGHTs and mornings, which makes me hard to sleep well. In midnight around 3am, there would be a truck staying around the apt, and the obvious noise will wake me and my wife up a few (1-3) times in a week. In each day of the week (maybe except Sunday), a trash truck would come around 6:40am, and another trash truck would come around 7

Here's the deal...the 101 team understands business and how to treat their residents. Dee, Joe and everyone at 101 went out of their way to make sure that my experience was great. Nice location and couldn't have been happier with my stay. It's a fantastic place to live and the view of the sound was outstanding.

I recently moved into the 101, I was immediately impressed by the staff that has been more than accommodating throughout my moving process. Dee from the management office has continued to be exceptional reaching out to make sure I am getting settled into my new home, responds to all voicemails and emails almost instantaneously and even came in on her day off to make sure I was able to get my internet installed. Joe from maintenance responded to my maintenance request in less than 24 hours which was incredible.This has been the most seamless moving experience and I see why many of the residents

From beginning to end my interactions with the 101 and particularly Dee in the management office have been exemplary. The professionalism, friendliness, and efficiency of the whole process has been above and beyond my expectations. The building and accommodations themselves are in top condition and well constructed. Moving across the country can be a difficult transition, and I am happy to say that all of the red tape and hassle involved with getting into a new building was not something that weighed on my mind at all during the move. Thus far the staff has been super responsive and helpful at

I could not be more pleased with my new apartment at the 101. The staff is nothing short of amazing. Dee and Nicole helped me a great deal with my move and helping me feel settled in my new place. Dee went above and beyond when she toured me around the property and had excellent (affordable) furniture recommendations, as well as some interior decorating tips! I am new to the area and The 101 is already feeling like home.
Not only does my apartment feel like a condominium due to the state of the art appliances and space, but the property also has the best rooftop deck in downtown Kirkland with

I have called the 101 home for nearly 3 years. If I could up the scale to 6 stars, I totally would. The location, amenities, staff, and sense of community within the building all make the 101 the best place to live in Kirkland by far. The units are clean, well-maintained (they also have a lightning-fast and ultra-responsive maintenance crew in case of a bulb outage or major problem), and just what you would expect from a luxury-appointed unit. They were built with the intent of being condominiums, so their construction is solid and the soundproofing is great. The individual air conditioning made

Looked at the 101 with my daughter for her first apartment out of college. Wonderful place. The manager was gracious and very helpful. The apartment was gorgeous. Great layout with a huge walkin closet that not only housed the washer and dryer but had super storage with a closet bar for clothes and lots of shelf space. The views were spectacular both from the bedroom and the living room. The living, dining and kitchen were non carpet which only makes sense. Why some apartments have carpet in the area that you would put a table to eat on is beyond me. The rooftop was even nicer than the pictures

I have lived at the 101 for about a year and a half and have been thrilled with my experience! Everyone that I have worked with is excellent and friendly. They love pets which is a plus for me and my yorkie :) The location can not be beat in my opinion. If you are going to live in Kirkland and want to soak in everything this cute little town has to offer... live at the 101!!

Excellent! I sold my home on Lake Sammamish and moved to the 101 for a change, It was the best decision i could have made,, The staff are wonderful and very helpful. Cant beat the location! I walk my 19 year old Jack Russell Bella across the street to the marina park and its the high light of her day, she loves running in the grass. I would recommend the 101 to anyone! I have been very happy here.
I tried to think of a negative and nothing came to mind.
