At four square miles, Seattle's Central District (also known as "the CD") is the city's oldest surviving residential area and is now one of the most interesting and diverse neighborhoods in the city. The CD was once home to Jimi Hendrix, Ernestine Anderson, Kenny G, and Quincy Jones. And the Central District is – no surprise – centrally located. Residents of the neighborhood describe the neighborhood as "diverse, central, bike-friendly, residential, interesting, and walkable." The CD has a number of designated historical landmarks: - Immaculate Conception Church, 820 18th Avenue (1904) - - Old Firehouse #23, CAMP, 722 18th Avenue (1909) - Victorian House, 1414 S. Washington Street (1900) - Langston Hughes Cultural Arts Center (formerly Bikur Cholim Synagogue) 104 17th Avenue (1912) - 23rd Avenue Houses Group, 812-828 23rd Avenue (1892-93) - James Washington Jr. Home and Studio, 1816 26th Avenue (1918) - First African Methodist Episcopal Church, 14th Avenue/Pine Street (1912)

The bungalow has a designated off street parking. If you have more than one car, street parking is easy and has a two-hour limit Monday through Saturday. The neighborhood is well served by walking, biking, or rideshare services like Uber. Bus stops are close and plentiful. The Capitol Hill Light Rail station is a 28-minute walk (1.3 miles) or a quick Uber ride. Use the station to access the entire region's light rail system. Swedish Cherry Hill Hospital is two blocks away, Swedish First Hill Hospital is 12 blocks away (.7 miles), Harborview Hospital is 1.2 miles, and Virgin Mason Hospital is 1.3 miles from the house. The newly remodeled (2023) Washington State Convention Center is 1.4 miles from the house.
