The Green Lake Community is located to the North and East of Green Lake, a freshwater lake in North Central Seattle.  The lake gets it’s name because even in its natural state the lake is prone to algae blooms.  The entire lake is surrounded  by a very popular paved path (2.8miles).  In the summer months this is a hotspot for outdoor activities.  The community is sought after for the lake as well as its easy access to Hwy 99and I-5.  You will find homes built in the early 1900’s as well as numerous new construction townhomes.  Enjoy the energy and beauty of Green Lake!

Things to do in Green Lake

*Around the Lake*

                 The path surrounding the lake is divided into two lanes– one for pedestrians and one for bicycles, roller blades and other wheeled unmotorized vehicles.  Enjoy the green fields for volleyball, soccer, baseball.

*On the Lake*

Sailboats, pedal boats, rowboats, skiffs and canoes are found all over the lake.  Motorized boats have been banned since 1968, use to be the location of hydroplane races 1929-1984.

*The Seattle Public Theater at the Bathhouse*

Originally was used as a bathhouse, located next to the swimming area.  Now it is a small but popular venue for plays.  Enjoy the close proximity to the stage and lake!
