This is a loop around the Northgate/Haller Lake neighborhood. I pass by the new lightrail leg that, by the time you see this, will be operational, whisking people to and from points north! This area is quite residential except for the southern side of the loop which is full of retail. It was a very bright and clear sunny morning that shows off Seattle’s bluest skies quite well. Enjoy!
