Don’t miss getting an up-close view of Lake Union’s charming houseboats.

Mega-Makeover

South Lake Union is undergoing a major transformation, thanks in large part to Microsoft co-founder/real estate magnate Paul Allen’s vision of the former warehouse and industrial area as a biotech hub and urban center. It’s easy to get there via the new, bright red or green South Lake Union Streetcar, which runs between this neighborhood and downtown every 15 minutes. In addition to the biotechs, online bookseller Amazon.com has built a huge campus in South Lake Union, and the old Navy armory building has reopened as the new home of Seattle’s much-loved Museum of History & Industry (MOHAI). Visitors can enjoy the wide variety of boating and other waterfront activities along South Lake Union. If you work up a hunger, grab a burger or taco—or dine at one of the stylish lakeside restaurants. Try Daniels’ Broiler (809 Fairview Pl. N.), or watch the boats from the outdoor deck at McCormick & Schmick’s Harborside (1200 Westlake Ave. N.).
