Taking at dip in San Diego at 600 feet is now a reality!
In a city known for ocean views and rooftop lounges, 800 Broadway is raising the bar—literally. The newly opened apartment tower in Downtown San Diego now boasts the highest swimming pool in San Diego County, perched atop its 40th floor at nearly 480 feet above ground. For residents, it’s more than a luxury amenity—it’s a lifestyle statement.
Located in the heart of Downtown, 800 Broadway officially opened earlier this year, but the much-anticipated rooftop pool and spa only debuted recently. Measuring 30 feet by 15 feet, the pool isn’t massive, but it offers jaw-dropping skyline views that residents can’t stop posting on Instagram. Alongside the pool is a cozy 7-by-15-foot hot tub—making it not just the highest pool, but also the highest hot tub in San Diego.
Luxury Living at Sky-High Elevation
Exclusivity is key. The rooftop amenities at 800 Broadway are reserved strictly for residents and their guests. With average rents around $3,496 per month, this apartment complex is one of the priciest in the county. But for those who live there, the value is in the lifestyle—one that includes panoramic views, sleek design, and a robust list of modern features.
Beyond the rooftop, residents enjoy access to a state-of-the-art fitness center, a speakeasy lounge with a 10-seat conference room, outdoor grilling stations, coworking areas, and luxury appliances including in-unit washers and dryers. This isn’t just another apartment complex—it’s a vertical community built for modern professionals and urban dwellers.

Standing Out in a Competitive Market
Despite soaring rent prices, Downtown San Diego currently has the highest apartment vacancy rate in the county at 12.4%, driven in part by a construction boom. For developers and property managers, standout amenities like rooftop pools are becoming essential for attracting renters in a crowded market.
As Alan Nevin, an economic researcher at Gafcon, put it: “There’s no question it is a great marketing tool.” Nevin consulted on unit configurations at 800 Broadway and emphasized that in today’s market, new luxury towers must justify their pricing through exceptional design and lifestyle offerings.
