LAKE CITY | North Seattle Neighborhoods
Lake City was one of the areas around Seattle which had Native American settlements for many years before Seattle came into being as a city. Like many of the other neighborhoods north of Seattle, the forested land in the area was owned and logged by the Puget Mill Company throughout the mid to late 1800’s. What was different about Lake City is that it did not develop around the rail lines that many Seattle neighborhoods did. Lake City, although there was a stop there. Lake City really started its growth in the age of the automobile as development occurred all along the main thoroughfare, Lake City Way rather than centralized around a single area where the train stop was.
Lake City experienced a large growth period in the post war era as families moved in to enjoy its suburb living and easy drives into Seattle and Lake City added a number of micro-neighborhoods such as Cedar Park, Matthews Beach and Meadowbrook. During the mid to late 1900’s Lake City experienced ups and downs as other north/south roads such as Aurora and Interstate 5 were built to take people north to Bothell, Everett and beyond. Modern day Lake City is a broad mixture of commercial businesses along Lake City Way including retail, restaurants, grocery stores, shops, theaters and pubs. Housing in Lake City is a combination of condos and single family houses along with a limited number of townhouses. Condos start around $100k in price and single family homes around $325k in Lake City.
