15th Ave E., Northbound from E. Madison, Summer, 2022

This one is a part of the From Madison series. The playlist is on our YouTube channel. This one runs northbound along 15th Ave. E. on Seattle’s Capitol Hill. It is a mixed residential and retail strip that has a genuine neighborhood feel to it. I end at Louisa Boren Outlook and catch a glimpse of Lake Washington from there. Along the way I roll through Volunteer Park and go in front of the Seattle Asian Art Museum, a beautiful deco-style building in the middle of the park. This one is a tad short as it was on the hottest day of the hottest heat wave of the year so far. My poor camera does NOT like the heat, so I decided to keep it a bit short. Enjoy!
