This one really is a straight shot from Husky Stadium, south across Montlake, and up the big 24th Ave E hill to 23rd Ave E and E. Jefferson. It is mostly residential despite its starting location, and Montlake being a major construction site for a very busy state highway’s lightrail addition. The area along 23rd Ave E has undergone a lot of renovation (gentrification) in the last few decades. 23rd and Union, 3 decades ago, had a big street drugs problem and now, it has a state-licenced weed store. And there it is. Enjoy the video!
