Norkirk, Kirkland

Norkirk Neighborhood is bounded roughly by the northern lines of properties adjoining Central Way, Burlington Northern Railroad to the east, 20th Ave. to the north, and the eastern edge of properties along Market Street. Major land use patterns are fairly well established in the Norkirk neighborhood.

The neighborhood is predominately residential in character and contains some of Kirkland's oldest homes. Despite the predominance of low-density residential use, there are areas containing industrial, commercial, or high-density residential use. The most significant issues for this neighborhood are maintaining the stability of older residential areas and providing adequate buffering between different types of land use.

The homes are average, not many places to shop or dine out, and not a lot of pretty scenery. This is just an average place to live, if not, a little below par.
