Wallingford Street-Level Survey 2007

Document Actions
Conducted on May 19, 2007, the Wallingford street-level survey focused mainly on commercial district streets: N 45th Ave from Densmore Ave N toward Stone Way N, from Bagley Ave N toward Densmore Ave N, and from 1st Ave NE toward 5th Ave NE. Wallingford Community Council and the Wallingford Chamber of Commerce have been working to establish N 45th as a Pedestrian Zone. Taking part in a Sustainable Seattle survey provides these community leaders with information about existing assets and areas of improvement.
