Guidebook for Seattle
Grocery Shopping
Upper Fremont: A short walk away & my favorite grocery store! Very local & the owner carefully stocks the shelves with a thoughtful balance of locally-crafted and mainstream food brands, locally-crafted beer, well-chosen wines, and a good selection of organic foods. There is also a nice deli so you can easily pack a picnic or eat at the tables out front. I'm constantly amazed at how I can get almost everything I need there, & prices are comparable to the big grocery stores too.

Live Music
Seattle has tons of music venues but this is a list of some of the local ones in a close radius that I recommend checking out their calendars online. Also, Seattle hosts free concerts downtown throughout the summer & these are all great local bands so search the web on "Seattle Downtown Summer Sounds" & see if any interest you.
Belltown: Iconic music venue with attached restaurant/bar. Countless incredible bands played within the walls of Belltown’s much loved living room including: Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Cheap Trick, R.E.M., Mudhoney, and Yoko Ono. One of the venues almost all great bands have played and one of my favorites. The restaurant has surprisingly great food!

During the Summer, the zoo hosts “Zoo Tunes” where they bring in pretty big musicians/bands while you lay out eating your picnic in the park after the zoo closes. Tickets can sell out fast for some shows so check the schedule early if you are interested. The shows do require separate tickets from the regular zoo admission. (You can’t just go into the zoo & stay.) You can also listen sitting in the North playground area just outside the zoo as well if you missed the ticket sales.

Sightseeing at Seattle Center & Pike Place Market
This is a list of some of the spots most tourists will want to see. You can take the #5 bus (3 blocks away on Phinney Ave & 43rd) to get to get there, or Uber/Lyft is pretty affordable. One way to get there is start at the Seattle Center, then take the iconic "Monorail' that takes you from Seattle Center to downtown Seattle on an "above ground" rail system (It's pretty cool). Then walk to the Market from there. If you want to drive to the Pike Place Market, I recommend parking in the lot just a few doors down from Old Stove Brewing (& stop in there for awesome views) as that parking lot is about the same hourly price as parking on the street. Another tip: If you only plan to stay 2 hours or less, park in the Target store parking garage & they validate you for 2 hours if you buy $20 of stuff (they sell groceries too)- their back door leads straight to the entrance of the Pike Place Market!

Over the decades, it became a favorite venue for Seattle moviegoers of all ages, from families to Star Wars buffs who camped out in line for weeks before a premiere. It became dilapidated & shut down but philanthropist and entrepreneur Paul Allen saved the theater by buying it and embarking on a multi-million-dollar renovation that includes advanced sound and projection and a restored Cinerama screen & it reopened to everyone's excitement. It features first-run & classic films, plus concessions such as craft beer & the most delicious huge bags of CHOCOLATE popcorn.

Delicious handmade wood-burning brick-fired pizza & selection of drinks. Open late and has happy hours too!

University of Washington District
If you are here to visit the UW, you can take the #44 bus Eastbound which you catch at 46th & Fremont Ave N. or Phinney Ave N. It is a beautiful campus and lined with a slightly gritty street filled with small restaurants, bars, tons of boba tea places, and some great vintage & consignments shops that cater to college students.
The UW has a beautiful campus well worth your visit while staying in Seattle. Check out Red Square , Suzzallo Library, and see the Cherry Blossoms in Spring when the campus is filled with people snapping shots of the beautiful blooms.

Fremont Attractions
Welcome to the center of the universe! Scientists coined this nickname for the Fremont neighborhood in the early 90s. In this eccentric neighborhood, you can find a troll, a chocolate factory, dinosaurs, rocket, and even a controversial Lenin statue. Fremont might not initially come to mind when creating a Seattle itinerary but after spending an afternoon here you might start to understand why Fremont received its title.

Probably the most famous and visited site in Fremont, the Fremont Troll was sculpted by four local artists: Steve Badanes, Will Martin, Donna Walter, and Ross Whitehead. The idea of a troll living under a bridge is derived from Scandinavian (Norwegian) folklore. It is clutching an actual Volkswagen Beetle, as if it had just swiped it from the roadway above. The Troll is 5.5 m (18 ft) high, weighs 6,000 kg (13,000 lb), and is made of steel rebar, wire, and concrete. He is interactive—visitors are encouraged to climb him, try to poke out his one good eye (a hubcap), & of course snap pictures!

This statue is controversial, and people continue to debate whether it belongs here. However, this larger-than-life rendering of Vladimir Lenin glaring down at the funky freedoms in Fremont’s commercial district is just an example of why Fremont is an artist’s community. This cast bronze sculpture weighs over 7 tons and 16 feet tall, & the sculpture took ten years to complete and is truly unique. It is believed to be the only representation portraying Lenin surrounded by guns and flames instead of holding a book or waving his hat. The sculptor was able to express his vision of Lenin as a violent revolutionary. An American veteran teaching in Poprad, Lewis Carpenter, found the sculpture lying face down after it was toppled in the 1989 Revolution. He recognized Venkov’s skill and craftsmanship and the boldness of his portrayal. It was brought to Fremont in 1996 and sits in the heart of downtown Fremont at the intersection of Fremont Place North, North 36th Street and Evanston Avenue North. Like the Fremont Troll and the Waiting for the Interurban sculpture, the Lenin statue is often decorated, appropriated, or vandalized with various intentions, both whimsical and serious. Lenin in Fremont: Right or Wrong? The presence of this sculpture has evoked a wide range of responses. If art is supposed to make us feel, not just feel good, then this sculpture is a successful work of art. The challenge is to understand that this piece means different things to different people and to learn to listen to each other and respect different opinions. From an artist’s standpoint, all points of view are valid and important. Art outlives politics and this sculpture lives in the Artist’s Republic of Fremont, as a symbol of an artistic spirit that outlasts regimes and ideologies.

In 1991 a live morning newscast reported the dismantling of the circa 1950 cold war rocket fuselage that was on display at an Army Surplus in Belltown. After hearing the news Fremont immediately went to acquire the Rocket. Instead of heading to the scrap yard, the Rocket was taken to Fremont and into urban mythology.
The 53-foot rocket was constructed from military surplus, using the tail boom of a Fairchild C-119 ‘Flying Boxcar’ transport aircraft dressed up with rocket-like fins. The rocket was originally plagued with engineering difficulties, leaving its constructors with the unfortunate problem of ‘not being able to get it up.’ Until the summer of 1993 when a team of specialists were called in to engineer the electronic features, structural details and design the new fins and nose cone. Neon laser pods have been installed on each fin and on the nose and in launch mode steam vapor emanates from the Rocket base. Thus, the rocket became erected on top of a building on the corner of North 36th Street and Evanston Ave North bearing the Fremont crest and motto, “De Libertas Quirkas”–which means “Freedom to be Peculiar.”

In 1979 sculptor Richard Beyer created Seattle’s most popular interactive artwork. It commemorates the light rail Interurban line that used to connect downtown Seattle with all of its neighborhoods. The piece depicts six people under a shelter and a curious dog, with a human face. It is located on the southeast corner of North 34th Street and Fremont Avenue North, just east of the northern end of the Fremont Bridge.
Made from cast aluminum, the statue has attracted the imagination, mischief and creativity of hundreds of neighbors each year. The Interurban has hosted costumes, displays and “art attacks” celebrating everything from weddings, birthdays, bon voyages, congratulations, I-love-you’s, memorials, good times and friendships to popular causes, and demonstrations. This continuous stream of interactive genius has made the Interurban Fremont’s most recognizable landmark and a symbol of the fun and creative energy for which the neighborhood has become famous.

Built back in 1917, Seattle’s Fremont Bridge, which connects the neighborhoods of Fremont and Queen Anne, is the most frequently opened drawbridge in the country! It is also a veritable community arts center with an ever growing collection of unique features and decorations. The first major artistic change to the bridge was when a vote at the street fair resulted in the bridge being painted blue. New features and decorations have continued to accumulate over the years. One of the control towers in the bridge is now home to a neon Rapunzel whose electric hair trails down the side of the wall, while on the opposite side another neon creation illustrates an elephant and a crocodile representing two favorite children’s stories: Rapunzel & How The Elephant Got His Trunk. One of the most recent additions is an electronic bike counter that displays the number of bicyclists that cross the bridge each day, adding the total to an ever increasing yearly goal meter.

"FREMONT SOLSTICE PARADE AND FAIR" (I can't fix this title!) The Fremont Fair is Seattle’s annual kickoff to summer (falls on weekend around June 20), celebration with over 100,000 guests at the city’s most beloved neighborhood street festival. The weekend features the traditional Fair with nearly 400 artists, craft vendors, food booths and more, music concerts, and the iconic Fremont Solstice Parade most famously featuring over 1000 naked bicyclists – all coming together to celebrate the Fremont neighborhood’s “Delibertas Quirkas” (Freedom to be Peculiar) nature. Basically the Mardi Gras of Seattle, it is quirky, festive, and a little crazy, but very family-oriented & filled with kids everywhere. This historic Solstice Parade has Mardi Gras like bands and floats, interactive floats the crowd runs into & joins, the dog parade, costumes galore, and lots of naked bicyclists who for the most part are artistically painted and people casually tossing off their clothes and joining in without any artistic effort is frowned upon but can happen. (Everyone is supposed to be clothed one the parade finishes.) Huge Art Car displays, giant slides, food and fun. There are very large crowds, & people start canvasing our streets for parking starting very early in the morning so plan ahead and don't leave your spot! Parking attendants make the rounds over and over all weekend long!
