A Ramble Through East Capitol Hill, Part 3 of 3, Spring, 2023

This one runs through the east side of Capitol Hill in Seattle. This is a very residential area with plenty of density and a ton of older single family houses. This is the old Catholic neighborhood and is still home to St Joseph’s and a catholic girls’ school, Holy Names Academy. This one ends going along 23rd Ave E which, I think, most folks would not associate with Capitol Hill, but it is the eastern border for sure. Enjoy!
