Friday's Fotos: Night Walk...I attended a fabulous chocolate event on Wednesday, September 30th with my coworker/friend Barbie Van Horn... (more about that in a post coming soon) It was a beautiful early Autumn evening in Seattle. I didn’t see the supermoon, but I enjoyed walking the South Lake Union neighborhood back to my car a little after 9pm.It still amazes me to this day how much transformation this old neighborhood has gone through over the past couple of years. The redevelopment was the brainchild of Paul Allen and his Vulcan Inc. Even today there are several properties under construction. It’s like a campus now with high profile businesses and entities like Amazon, PATH, University of Washington Medicine, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research, Seattle BioMed, PEMCO, and a few hotels,...

A Seattle NeighborhoodBallard is a community in Seattle, Washington, with the neighborhood surrounded by esteemed locations like Crown Hill, Greenwood, and the Lake Washington Ship Canal. Ballard has had a real estate boom in the mid-2000, with 20 condominiums and retail projects been enacted in early 2007. The new developments not only added more than 2000 households to the area, but it has opened the floodgates of real estate tourism, with many families relocating to this bustling Seattle neighborhood. Even though Ballard is a bustling city, there is still a strong sense of community with initiatives like "Get Carbon Neutral" underlining the importance of sustainability and working towards lowering the city's carbon footprint.With the real estate boom of the mid-2000s, many venues, sh...

The Burned Seattle Floating Home on the 2017 dock...Is it for sale?  No. Seattle houseboats aren't always affordable up front, and although the cost of living on one after purchase is substantially less than a similar land home, houseboat buyers are looking for more affordable and creative options.  I can't fault them there.Take the 2017 Fairview Ave E Dock - One of the three Log Foundation docks. For years there has been a burned out shell of a floating home looking abandoned and derelict.  Molly and I have been asked the question at least once a month for years and years:  "What about that burned out floating home in Eastlake? " with follow up comments like "I bet that's affordable!"  Aerial images courtesy of Google Maps. The thing is, the slip alone that the burned out shell of a ho...

Seattle, Community and Real Estate Seattle’s offers one of the most beautiful skyline views in all of the United States due to the stunning coastline and several architectural gems including the Space Needle, a tribute to the 1962 World Fair. Often referred to as ‘The Emerald City’, this urban Washington metropolis was given this special nickname because of its substantial amount of park acreage. This American town is beautiful and alluring to those on the outside looking in, but what is it like to live and work in Seattle. Spotlight on The Emerald City, Seattle, Washington Although this city is known for its rainy weather and delicious coffee (in a word, Starbucks… need we say more?) Seattle is also known as the city that never sleeps.
