A Ramble Through the Cascade District of South Lake Union, Summer, 2022

The Cascade District is a bit of a subset of the South Lake Union neighborhood. It is a pretty distinct zone of mostly residential buildings with an occasional cafe or restaurant on the ground floor and the whole place borders the eastern edge of the sprawling Amazon complex of buildings that make most of the neighborhood. This walk winds through the district catching plenty of neighbors out and about. Enjoy!
