The Roy Vue is an apartment building in Seattle, United States.[1] Constructed in 1924 on a design by Charles Haynes, the three-story structure is built in what has been described as a "semi-gothic" style, surrounding a large, landscaped courtyard of 5,000 square feet (460 m2).[1][2] Its red brick facade is ornamented by several typically Tudor elements such as parapeted gables.[1][3]

In 2018 plans were announced to demolish the interior of the building and build-over the signature courtyard.[2]
