What once was a stretch of wide-open land is now Seattle’s high-tech hub, with incredible restaurants, state-of-the-art apartment living, and community activities in the most walkable part of the city. South Lake Union is the global headquarters for Amazon, home to REI’s flagship store, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and the latest biotech startups and cutting-edge technology juggernauts Google and Facebook. Take a workout class at Barry’s Bootcamp or SoulCycle, meet friends for lunch at Portage Bay Cafe, and spend the afternoon wandering the MOHAI – Museum of History and Industry, exploring the Center for Wooden Boats, or lazing about the lake’s edge. South Lake Union has both work and play in one central spot.
