Special Event: Walking Tour of Downtown Seattle
Wednesday, July 17, 2019 FREE Event Join us for a stroll around downtown Seattle! Our journey will begin in the newer, modern shopping district, then we'll meander down into "old" Seattle and the Pioneer Square area before heading back uphill and ending with a visit to the Seattle downtown library. Learn some of Seattle's fascinating history and view some old & new architecture while strolling with ELLA friends! The walk will last approximately 2.5 hours, including a rest stop for lunch at Columbia Tower food court. We estimate being back in Bellevue by 2:30 p.m. This tour is FREE and open to everyone. Children are welcome to join us, and the walk is stroller-friendly, although we will have a few hills to navigate. Here are the details: Transportation: > If you who would like to take the bus together from Crossroads Shopping Center, we will meet at the red RapidRide B-Line bus stop at 156th Ave & NE 10th St, promptly at 9:45 a.m. Then we'll join the others on the 550 Bus. > If you who would like to take the bus together from Downtown Bellevue, we will meet at the Bellevue Transit Center, Bay 9 promptly at 10:10 a.m. to catch the 550 Bus into Seattle. > If you prefer to drive your car into Seattle or take your own bus route into Seattle, you can meet us in the Westlake area of downtown at the Nike store at 6th Ave. & Pike St. at 11:05 a.m. There are several parking lots along Pike Street.
