Seattle
Neighborhoods
Capitol Hill
Adjacent to downtown with
US I-5 as its western boundary. A good combination of residential streets (with
distinctive, turn of the century bungalows and classic apartments), shopping, and
nightlife. Home to a diverse population, including a strong gay community. By
the way, you will look in vain for a Capitol on Capitol Hill.
Lake View Cemetery
Final resting place of Seattle's pioneers, the people whose names now grace the city's
streets, parks, and buildings.
Volunteer Park
Located on Capitol Hill, the park was once the home to the Seattle Art Museum, a building
which is now occupied by the Seattle Asian Art Museum. The park grounds also feature a
conservatory and a beautiful view of the city, which is enhanced if you can make the climb
up the 108 steps of the old water tower.
