Centrally located within the city, Capitol Hill is one of Seattle's oldest neighborhoods. Capitol Hill is located east of Lake Union and Downtown Seattle, south of Mountlake, and east of Madison Park and Seattle's First Hill. Seattle's Capitol Hill mixes tradition with what has become Seattle's most trendy, urban and art-forward community. The neighborhood is a thriving urban center, with Olmsted-designed Volunteer Park as a focal point in North Capitol Hill while Broadway, Fifteenth, and the Pike-Pine corridor are the three hubs of shopping and dining featuring independent retailers. Capitol Hill real estate has a variety of sub-neighborhoods. North Capitol Hill includes grand mansions with turn of the century tree lined vintage streets and is the home of some of Seattle's top high schools: Holy Names and Seattle Prep. Broadway and the Pike-Pine corridor feature dense urban living including old brick apartment buildings and condos, many with views of Lake Union. If you are looking to rent an apartment, buy a Seattle condo, or are seeking a home for sale located in the heart of the city, Seattle's Capitol Hill is a must see.
