Vantage Pointe Condominium

Vantage Pointe Condominium, Residential skyscraper in downtown San Diego, United States.

Vantage Pointe Pointe Condominium is a 40-story residential high-rise in downtown San Diego, built from 2006 to 2008 and rising 128 meters, about 60 feet shorter than the Pinnacle West Tower. It holds 679 condominium units and was designed by S2 Architecture. It stands between Ninth and Tenth Avenues and A and B Streets.

Construction began in 2006 and ended in 2008, with the French Wikipedia giving 2009 as the completion year. The tower was designed by S2 Architecture and contains 679 residential units. In 2009 the owners announced they would refund all purchase deposits made for its units.

Architect critics faulted the tower for lacking a "human-scale relationship at street level", and the San Diego Architectural Foundation gave it the "Grand Onion" award, a satirical prize for design the jury judged poorly resolved. The name is a play on the foundation's annual Orchids and Onions honours, where onions mark the criticised projects.

The building sits in a central location that makes reaching downtown attractions and the waterfront easy and convenient. Its position offers good access to public transportation and local services in the surrounding area.

The building's 679 units are served by elevators that have repeatedly failed; during some outages, residents living on floors 27 to 40 had to climb the stairs to reach their apartments. A water main break once flooded the elevator shafts and destroyed the lobby ceiling.
