    • This is currently the tallest residential tower in downtown.

    If you like the Electra condos, you may also want to check out the Sapphire Tower condos 

    Units facing these directions will probably see: 

    • West: Units facing West in the Electra condos look directly into the Pacific Gate high rise condos, but can look to either side of that tower and have some bay views. In 2018, construction began on several new buildings planned to go up on the Broadway Complex lot, which currently has 2 eight story 1950ish Navy buildings, those are all coming down and will be replaced taller buildings. Appears the SW location in the Electra condo building is the safest of the West facing views.  Those new buildings may not be complete till 2025.
    • North: The North view from the Electra condominiums is a skyline view of other office and condo buildings. You can see all the way up to La Jolla in the view corridors, as there are not a lot of obstructions beyond the buildings a block or two away. 
    • East: The East view from Electra is again a skyline view. Note there is an office tower directly across the street going East that obstructs the direct East view and the NE. Units on the very South end of Electra are out far enough to see around the office tower. Units in the North side of Electra will look directly into the office tower. 
    • South: This is the most sought after view in the Electra condos as it’s a great panoramic view of the downtown skyline and the bay. Its will be the least obstructed view once all the proposed construction is over. 

    Note: These views may change in the future or if you are on a very low floor may not have any view. Each buyer should verify on their own. Above statements are only one man’s opinion and are not guaranteed to be accurate.

    Like the most: Residents of the Electra condos conveyed to me that they are very impressed with the quality of construction both inside the units as well as the common areas of the building. This was a very common comment in the results. A lot of praise was also given for the staff working at Electra, especially the front desk staff (which I can attest to). Several comments were made on the great location of the building. 

    A lot of residents raved about the 60’ tall atrium styled social lounge which I am guessing is about 6,000 sf. This room with its glass domed ceiling and large windows is a preserved and reinvented space from the structures prior use housing an electrical generating plant. Opulent, elegant and beautiful were some words residents used to describe the room.
    Like the least: Electra condo residents expressed to me they are not happy about the noise made from the freight train horns.  A few expressed that while not happy with the high HOA fees, you are getting your monies worth. Some residents do not like the 01 floor plan found on floors 5-28. (I think its mainly because of the den, ask me about how some residents have modified and improved this floor plan.
    Other comments: One very interesting commonality to the Electra condo survey results were a lot of residents saying they looked at a lot of buildings in San Diego before buying here at Electra. Most buyers do shop around but the residents who purchased here commented that this building won “hands down” over all the other choices and they are “100%” satisfied living here.
