Seattle neighborhood · “The U District” to locals
University District
Everyone calls University Way “The Ave,” and it runs on cheap lunches, used paperbacks, and the four-year churn of students who swear they'll never leave. Between the cherry trees of the UW Quad and the light rail station off Brooklyn Ave NE, storefronts turn over fast, and the ones that last tend to last for decades.
