Fremont Ave North, Fremont

Fremont Avenue N is one of the main drags through the neighborhood of Fremont. Fremont itself is known for its quirkiness, yuppy flair, and hip ambience. Gasworks Park can be reached by traveling down Fremont Ave as well as a number of shops.

If you like strange, you'll love quirkly little Fremont, self proposed Center of the Universe.

I'm not sure where that label came from, but it seems to fit. Fremont is just north of downtown, and very close to the perfect place to live in Seattle.

Fremont Ave itself has lots of little art galleries and antique shops. It has clothing shops, vintage stuff, and high end classier stuff all on the main drag. There are also lots of little cafes and restaurants, each with it's own character. Make sure you see the Fremont Drawbridge, the monument to the Center of the Universe, and the Fremont Troll which is actually under the Aurora Bridge.

If you get bored, Gasworks park is nearby, just walk along the water till you see it.

Fremont has all sorts of things going on, so keep your ears out, and prepare for something new and unique.
