Belvedere Park October 2011

There isn't much to Belvedere Park except the view.  But what an excellent view it is!  There is a sweeping vista of Downtown Seattle across Elliott Bay from this park on the east edge of the Admiral District of West Seattle.  You can also see Queen Anne Hill, 1st Hill, Beacon Hill & Harbor Island.  The park covers 1.7 acres on both sides of SW Admiral Way.  The totem pole was carved from a cedar log cut from nearby Schmitz Preserve Park, another wonderful Seattle park you must visit on your tour of West Seattle.  Below Schmitz Preserve Park is Alki Beach, Seattle's most popular waterfront promenade.  You can easily walk between Schmitz Park & Alki Beach.  The business districts of the Admiral District & Alki are filled with shops & restaurants.
