Ballard
This Seattle neighborhood, is a “city within a city”, with a decidedly Scandinavian accent and proud maritime heritage. Located in the northwest part of the city, founded by Captain William Rankin Ballard, who received 160 acres of “worthless” timberland in payment of a business debt, the area prospered as developers extended rail and streetcar service to Golden Gardens, a beach resort at the northwest edge of the community.
Puget Sound mills and fisheries attracted thousands of Scandinavian immigrants to Ballard. They gave the city one of its first ethnically identifiable neighborhoods. The Nordic Heritage Museum continues to celebrate Scandinavian culture and history. Many of the old ethnic bars and taverns have been converted into coffeehouses, jazz clubs, and microbreweries.
