My apartment is in a perfect location. It's right across from the first mall in America, the Northgate Mall in North Seattle. Along the side between the mall and the apartment building is a large park with a skateboard area, basketball court, grass, outdoor exercise fitness area, and plenty of park benches and chairs.
Right across from my apartment is Target, Best Buy, and fast food. A block away is 24 Hour Fitness SuperSport. Two blocks away is the library. Three blocks away is QFC, a large
...grocery store, and Walgreens. I don't need a car where I live because I could walk to everything or take a bus. My apartment building has a huge parking lot that wraps around the building giving everyone plenty of space to park free.
Next to my apartment building which is located between 3rd Avenue and 5th Avenue on 5th Avenue is the bus stop where bus 41 stops. Bus 41 is a double bus and there are anywhere between 4 and 10 buses an hour, depending on need. It only takes 15 minutes to get downtown on bus 41. I can take the bus as a senior for $1.00, get off at University Station, ride the elevator up into Benaroya Hall and go to the symphony or walk a block and go to a Broadway play or the Seattle Art Museum or walk to the Aquarium on the waterfront, or stop at Pike Place Market. If I want to go to SeaTac and catch a plane, I change to the train at university station and continue all the way to SeaTac.
Seattle has everything. Perfect weather. All the arts and cultural activities that is found in a major world city. Seattle is one of the fastest growing cities in the United States and people from around the world come to live and work in peace together. I live in a neighborhood in Northgate where 1/3 of the population are new immigrants from around the world and for many English is their second language.
My apartment building has a large pool in the center with grass, tables and chairs, and a space for barbeques. With a secure entrance, I feel safe.
My apartment is spacious and open with high ceilings. It is very quiet on the third floor. During the winter months, I rarely have to turn on the heat. My kitchen has plenty of space.
My front room is huge with a large open area and sliding glass doors that open onto a large balcony with room to grow plants, and l have room for lounge chairs. I have two bedrooms that are spacious. The master bedroom has a spacious walk-in closet and storage. My 1 ½ bathroom has everything I need.
