ADMIRAL | West Seattle Neighborhoods
The Admiral neighborhood in West Seattle is known for its relaxed residential vibe but with the benefits of a appealing business district close by. Admiral is located along the top of the ridge that makes up West Seattle where Admiral Way intersects California Avenue and the area south from that intersection. Although the first Euro-American settlers arrived on the Alki beaches in 1851, the area that was first significantly settled and became a “neighborhood” was in modern day Admiral. The area grew slowly as settlers worked to develop a lasting presence on the top of the hill as the first residents congregated around the industrial areas near the water. By the late 1880’s, Admiral had become the heart of West Seattle and had a strong amount of residential development. Admiral maintained its position as the center of West Seattle for many years even after 1907 when West Seattle agreed to be annexed by the city of Seattle in order to get access to the services and utilities it was struggling to provide. The decision to be annexed by Seattle was a contested one and to this day West Seattle continues to maintain its own identity and vibe.
Admiral has an attractive business district with a mixture of restaurants, shops, markets and pubs. A number of different housing options are close by and residents enjoy easy walking access to all the Admiral has to offer. Admiral has a mixture of single family homes, condos and townhouses. Townhouses tend to be newer construction and start around $500k while condos have more variance in ages and start around $250k. Single family homes can be priced as low as $500k although newer construction, larger or remodeled properties typically start at $650k.
