The Neighborhood

Maple Leaf

Maple Leaf is a primarily residential neighborhood along the I-5 corridor in North Seattle, named for the reservoir park that anchors its western edge. The housing stock is predominantly mid-century single-family homes and bungalows, and the neighborhood has maintained a stable residential character without the development pressure of neighborhoods near light rail stations.

The Roosevelt and Northgate light rail stations are each a short drive or bus ride away, giving Maple Leaf reasonable transit access without being immediately adjacent to the development pressure those stations generate. The commercial district along Roosevelt Way NE provides day-to-day services.

Maple Leaf has attracted buyers looking for entry-level single-family opportunities in North Seattle. The neighborhood's location between Ravenna and Northgate gives it reasonable proximity to both established neighborhoods and transit infrastructure.
