The Blogs of Georgetown Seattle

Georgetown, home of my favorite bar in Seattle, is a mix of grit and artsy hip. It’s also home to many people who can tune out the sound of Boeing Field’s myriad of incoming and outgoing flights a day and, apparently, one very political blogger and a not-so-frequent Seattle PI blogger.

Georgetown is so cool that a Beacon Hill blogger adopted it (she sez: “My blog was supposed to be about Beacon Hill, but nothing ever happens here. So it’s turned into more of a Georgetown blog.”). The Estately Beacon Hill outline is a little screwy, but Ms. Beacon Hill really betrays her need for local content when she says “It’s one of the largest neighborhoods in Seattle, and we don’t even have a Starbucks (not that we want one).” In Seattle? Just a mile or two from Starbucks’ world headquarters? How can that be? Does she mean no 2 Starbucks within 5 blocks of each other? Starbucks blog, please tell us!

    I literally mean that there is no Starbucks in the entire miles-long Beacon Hill neighborhood! No freestanding cafe, no Starbucks stand in a grocery store — nothing.

    Just as folks on the western edge of Beacon Hill overlook the Starbucks headquarters, Starbucks continues to overlook us. (I’m sure they’ll arrive by the time the light rail stop is open, though.)

    We don’t need a Starbucks — we have Galaxie coffee and Java Love — but it’s the clearest sign of what a forgotten backwater Beacon Hill is.

    It’s not bad, but it is weird.

    Nothing ever happens on Beacon Hill? To paraphrase R. Kelley, “It’s the freakin’ Beacon, baby; I’m about to have me some fun.” Just because the things that happen don’t happen in English doesn’t mean they’re not happening. And wtf is the deal with your outline of the neighborhood? Don’t you trust the government?

    Excellent blog you have here. So many blogs like this cover
    subjects that aren’t found in magazines. I don’t know how we got by 20 years
    ago with just newspapers and magazines.

    Georgetown is just as fascinating as its name precedes the
    one planning to go there.  Georgetown
    offers an out-of-towner one heck of an experience in this Seattle famed city.
    Every traveler going to Georgetown will indeed experience how it is being
    sleepless in Seattle. Starbucks? Forget it, Georgetown will make you forget everything
    else.
