New Neighborhood

October 3, 2009

I just moved into the U-District, and thought I’d share a couple brief observations.

My street is, in my opinion, the nicest closest street to campus. It straddles the Ravenna/U-District neighborhood line. If I walk out my house and head north a few blocks, there’s a park with mothers and kids, and a neighborhood grocery store. As a friend described, “Very cute…” Out the house and south, U-District. I can’t give it a just description, but eclectic and full of life and somewhat unpredictable.

So far I’m loving my new place. Roommates, Rent, and off street parking are all wins. Cowen Park Grocery is my favorite nearby coffee spot at the moment. There’s also a local fruit/veggie stand on my street, which I will be supporting this coming month.
