Green Lake

Anchored by a 50,000-year-old glacial lake and park, Green Lake is often called the ‘Central Park’ of Seattle. A recreation destination used by an estimated 1 million people per year, runners, in-line skaters, cyclists, and walkers love the 2.8-mile paved path that circles the lake. The area includes a wading pool, tennis and basketball courts, fields for soccer and baseball, and a Pitch-and-Putt Golf Course. Adjoining both I-5 and Highway 99, this neighborhood is the height of convenience for commuters. Homes in the area are predominantly single-family residences and townhouses are becoming a popular and more affordable option in the area. Along the north and east sides of the lake, restaurants, bars, and coffee houses cater to the neighborhood residents and active visitors alike.
