Betty Bowen Viewpoint or Marshall Park on Queen Anne's Southwest slope is a thing of beauty. Betty Bowen was a patron of the arts in Seattle and supported artists like Morris Graves whom she met as a teenager. There are some wonderful art installations right here (including an unsigned Morris Graves)for all to enjoy if the view from Seattle's Queen Anne neighborhood isn't enough.
Beautiful Southwest Queen Anne View Location: This park is located on the very West end of West Highland Drive over looking Seattle's Puget Sound and at the foot of the South end of the Wilcox Wall.
Queen Anne Seattle Living: Queen Anne real estate: Are you interested in living in one of Seattle's oldest and most beautiful neighborhoods? We are happy to show you some of our favorite spots here!
Queen Anne Living: West Slope: Soundview Terrace Park on the West Slope of Seattle's Queen Anne neighborhood is quite amazing and a wonderful hidden gem. It has a beautiful play area and huge views of Puget Sound - hence the name. Queen Anne view homes line the streets above it and this park is perched perfectly for all to enjoy and reflect.
A reflective place on Queen Anne: It is sad, but Soundview Terrace is actually a memorial park dedicated to the memory of six children who lost their lives on the 1/31/2000 Alaska Airlines Flight 261 plane crash. Rachel was a little girl who was only six when she died. Apparently, she played here almost every day. It is a wonderful place to really appreciate life and the beauty of Seattle.
Where on Queen Anne hill is it? 2500 11th Ave W, Queen Anne, Seattle

Have you seen the current Seattle houseboats for sale right now? There is a pretty good mix of Seattle houseboats on the market right now including floating homes and even some vessels. It was beautiful in Seattle today, but I imagine that the coming winter weather will have everyone snuggling up to their fireplaces. Houseboats are surprisingly efficient for keeping warm if they have been properly weatherized.
Winter Seattle Houseboats: Maybe you might want to cozy up in one? Cozy is the word for most of them as lack of space has always been the recurrent theme for houseboaters. This is not always the case, though. There are many quite spacious houseboats. Some with concrete floats even have basements.
Seattle houseboats for sale right now include a $2,490,000 beauty with extra moorage - a lot of extra moorage (50% interest in 9 slips) for extra income potential as well as an unheard of garage - on Portage Bay. On the higher end of floating homes right now, there s also an Eastlake houseboat for $1,850,000 right in the heart of Lake Union. The Eastlake floating home available for $1.2M is pending. Bumping down in price, there is one just a couple in from the end with an awesome adjoining floating attached dock in its moorage spot for $799,950. It recently had its stringers replaced according to the listing agent. So just two in Eastlake right now and none in Westlake.

Even going into the "slow" season, I can tell you that there is great demand for Westlake floating homes and Eastlake floating homes! Let us know if you have one!

Previewing Seattle homes - Seattle was so pretty today! I was driving and not the one taking the pictures, by the way, East on the 520 bridge from Seattle to the Eastside on our way to go preview a few homes in Bellevue and Kirkland for a friend coming into town.
This shot was taken by Morgan looking East and a little South so that he could capture the tip of Seattle's Madison Park neighborhood as well as Bellevue waterfront homes to the South of 520.
Apparently, we are supposed to be getting snow possibly tomorrow night and rain starting again tonight! I can not believe it so time will tell, but wanted to share what a pretty Fall day we had today!
