About Queen Anne

Queen Anne’s hilltop streets have a neighborhood business district, while Kerry Park draws visitors to the southern slope for views over Seattle. The Queen Anne P-Patch at 3rd Avenue N and Lynn Street adds a community-garden setting away from the skyline viewpoint.

Upper Queen Anne’s business district

Queen Anne Avenue N forms the core of the upper hill’s business district, with nearby commercial streets including Boston and McGraw. Shops and restaurants sit among the surrounding residential blocks.

The avenue provides a street-level introduction to the neighborhood, away from Kerry Park’s skyline viewpoint. The city’s design guidelines describe the storefront corridor and its connections to nearby streets.

Kerry Park looks out over the city

Kerry Park on W Highland Drive is a viewpoint over Elliott Bay and central Seattle. In clear conditions, Mount Rainier can appear beyond the city.

The Space Needle and downtown towers seen from here are the view from Queen Anne. The photograph on this page was taken from the park; it shows the skyline beyond the hill’s residential streets.

A community garden near Lynn Street

The Queen Anne P-Patch is at 3rd Avenue N and Lynn Street. Established in 1994, the garden includes an orchard and is listed by the city with a honeybee feature.

This smaller neighborhood green space offers a different stop from Kerry Park’s open view. The city’s garden page describes its community history and explains how residents can apply to participate.
