Sapphire Tower Condos for Sale in the Columbia District
Built 2008 32 stories 97 homes HOA $1,700–$2,070/mo (2026 data)
Overview
A 32-story tower in the Columbia District
Sapphire Tower brings a quiet, polished kind of luxury to the Columbia district. Sapphire Tower is a 32-story luxury condominium tower in Downtown San Diego’s Columbia district (92101), completed in 2008 by Centurion/Avion Development. With only 97 residences spread across 32 floors, it’s one of downtown’s lowest-density high-rises, a few blocks from the bay and Santa Fe Depot.
That low density is the whole point. Homes are offered in three collections, the Cosmopolitan Series, the Sapphire Series and the Penthouse Series, and are wrapped in floor-to-ceiling blue glass with dual-glazed windows that keep city sound outside. Ten-foot ceilings let the light pour in, and west-facing homes look out over San Diego Bay toward the Pacific. Downstairs, a concierge and gated security look after the building, and residents share a pool, spa, fitness center and BBQ area.
From the Columbia district, the Embarcadero, Little Italy’s restaurants and Broadway’s offices are all within an easy walk, and Santa Fe Depot puts the trolley, Coaster and Amtrak close at hand. For buyers who want high-rise living with the city at their feet and fewer neighbors in the elevator, Sapphire Tower is well worth a look.

Lifestyle in Sapphire Tower
Is Sapphire Tower right for you?
Sapphire Tower is a natural fit for buyers who want full-service high-rise living: a concierge and gated security look after the building, and residents share the pool, spa, fitness center and BBQ area without leaving home. Pet owners will appreciate the policy, which allows up to two pets per unit. For anyone who wants the bay close by and the car parked most days, the location speaks for itself.
What to weigh before you buy
Dues run $1,700–$2,070 a month (based on 2026 sales and listings), covering the pool, spa, fitness center, BBQ area and common-area upkeep. There is no guest parking, so visitors use nearby street or public parking. The association is managed by Action Property Management.
Leases must be at least 30 days, so nightly rentals aren’t allowed, but monthly and longer rentals are.
