It took a little while to find someone at Edgewater Hotel in Seattle who knew where they had taped Seattle episodes of the Real World MTV show. And unfortunately I don’t remember the name of concierge who had answer. I don’t even remember Pier number to be honest.
I could get there in no time from hotel. It is just down street from Edgewater. Right by where all the trolleys are stored.
Front part of this building has several businesses in it. Middle lower part is nothing but parking. We were told that originally MTV or the producers of the Real World wanted to keep things a condo. But the part of building that housed now famous strangers was a restaurant when we were there.
Update 3/13/2019
Location is Pier 70 in Seattle. George Benson Waterfront Streetcar Line is long gone. Was shutdown in 2005 after our first Seattle visit.

“The downtown waterfront, dotted with piers, offers stunning views of Elliott Bay and, on clear days, the Olympic Mountains. The area includes restaurants, offices and such destinations as the Seattle Aquarium and the Bell Street Pier cruise ship terminal. The Port of Seattle has its headquarters at Pier 69. Pier 70, next door, was converted into high-tech office space after hosting MTV’s “Real World” during the show’s Seattle season.The downtown waterfront, dotted with piers, offers stunning views of Elliott Bay and, on clear days, the Olympic Mountains.

At the link below you will find a good picture of how the Real World part of Pier 70 looks today.
Seattle’s George Benson Waterfront Streetcar is a 2-mile single-track line with two passing sidings. It utilizes a former freight line through the city’s central waterfront district as well as a .4 mile extension in city streets to reach the International District, where it connects with the downtown transit tunnel and the Amtrak station, and is a short walk away from the new ballpark. The system operates five double-ended streetcars imported from Melbourne, with up to three cars running at one time. Each of these rebuilt 1924-vintage cars can carry up to 43 seated and 40 standing passengers, and have accommodations for one wheelchair. The line uses high-level platforms exclusively, all of which are on the same side of the track. The cars have been rebuilt for level boarding, eliminating the former drop-center section, and have doors on only one side.
