Live Just Steps From UW Tacoma
When you've outgrown living on-campus — or just prefer a more boutique apartment living experience — Jefferson Flats offers the perfect location with additional amenities and extra space to spread your wings.
Walk to school via the scenic and historic Prairie Line Trail, a path that doubles as a city park, intersecting campus and following an old railroad line from Downtown Tacoma to the Brewery District. Jefferson Flats is just steps from the south entrance to this unique local shortcut to the city's center.
If you're not yet a UW student, you may decide to be if you call J|F home! The University of Washington's beautiful Tacoma campus offers a wide variety of undergraduate and graduate programs, including Master's and Doctoral degrees.
