At SPU, we have faith in providing our students with opportunity. And our location in the world-class city of Seattle is a big part of that.

Business professors invite around 100 local guest speakers into their classrooms every year. Theology classes visit local churches, spanning a wide variety of denominations. Biology professors work with students to research some of the unique life found in the Pacific Northwest. And this only scratches the surface!

当地风光

绰号翡翠城, Seattle is not only a matchless location for 实习 and service-learning opportunities, but it’s also a popular tourist destination, with great restaurants and places to see. Here are a few suggestions from the Admissions staff to get you started exploring SPU’s neighborhood highlights.

Seattle Center Space Needle

SPU students snap a photo outside of the Museum of Pop Culture at Seattle Center.

 

The Surrounding Neighborhoods

Seattle is one of those cities that lives like a town. It’s full of quirky neighborhoods, and it’s small enough that you’ll usually run into someone you know on a Saturday afternoon when you are out and about.

SPU students get to live and learn at the crux of three fantastic Seattle neighborhoods, and we think you’ll love living here as much as they do.


安妮女王

Seattle Pacific is tucked on the north side of Seattle’s 安妮女王 Hill ― it’s quiet, 住宅, 和友好的. Just up the hill from campus is a village-like avenue with more coffee-shop study haunts and eateries than you’ll ever know what to do with. Further down the hill bustles with a downtown vibe.

Our favorite 安妮女王 destinations:

  • Seattle Center, for a Space Needle view and gobs of photo opps
  • Malena’s Taco Shop, for the real deal (and a steal)
  • Storyville Coffee Company, for mochas, pastries, and hipster points


弗里蒙特

You won’t get through orientation at SPU without at least one invitation to walk to 弗里蒙特 along the ship canal. It’s a gorgeous 10-minute stroll in every season, but especially in the fall. Once you arrive, it’s public art, local boutiques, and peaceful protesters with clip董事会s galore.

SPUers love a lot about 弗里蒙特:

  • Theo Chocolate, because of free samples and an educational factory tour
  • Thai restaurants, because massaman curry is life
  • Internships at 谷歌, Adobe, and Getty Images, because, hello


巴拉德

Once a Scandinavian fishing village, 巴拉德 is home to longtime locals, 年轻的专业人士, 家庭, and plenty of SPU professors. 那里有很多好吃的, 咖啡店, and the places you’ll probably head to for groceries and light bulbs (Fred Meyer, 赌博十大靠谱软件正看着你呢).

巴拉德著名的有:

  • Larsen's Danish Bakery, where the kringle is crisp
  • Majestic Bay Theatres, where movie-watching feels old-school
  • Golden Gardens Park, where SPU beach bonfires are a weekend staple in the fall and spring
