"Street that runs right along the Swedish Medical Center in Ballard"
Traveling west on NW 54th Street will take you right into the Swedish Medical Center in Ballard where you will find a lot of office buildings, clinics, and labs affiliated with the hospital. This area of Ballard is popular with retirees and older people who require routine medical care. There are a number of young health professionals who live around this street as well. Traveling to the east on NW 54th Street will take you right by Gilman Playground where you can enjoy some green space in the heart of the city. There are softball and baseball fields as well as a wading pool for kids or adults. Families love spending time at the Gilman Park and Playground. 54th Street runs parallel with NW Market Street and is only one block over. The proximity gives access to lots of dining and shopping options.
