The Neighborhood
Licton Springs
Licton Springs is a primarily residential neighborhood along the I-5 corridor in North Seattle, named for the mineral springs that once defined the area and still flow in the small park that bears the name. The housing stock is predominantly mid-century single-family homes with some newer infill, and the neighborhood benefits from convenient north-south access without the development pressure of neighborhoods near light rail stations.
The neighborhood sits between Northgate and the Aurora corridor, giving it reasonable proximity to multiple commercial areas without being immediately adjacent to the activity of either. It is a practical, unpretentious residential neighborhood without a strong commercial identity of its own.
