8th Ave North, East Queen Anne

On one of my many trips to Seattle I stayed on 8th avenue north, The street is "mountainous" with small windy and often one way streets. There are some great coffee shops and great views near the top of the hill. Through the breaks in buildings on 8th avenue are some of the most spectacular views of Lake Union. Also from here you can get a bird's eye view of the gasworks park accross the lake.
