(Check out their cool new website!) Location: 2301 Eastlake Ave. E. Ship Canal Grill: Things get under way here at 3:30 p.m. They'll be featuring a Chili Bowl. Location: 3218 Eastlake Ave. E. Did I miss anyone? Let everyone know what your business is doing for the Super Bowl in the comments. Thanks! UNIVERSITY DISTRICT FOOD BANK: The Neighborhood Grills, which include the Eastlake Bar and Grill, will be sponsoring their 10th annual benefit dinner for the University District Food Bank from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday. [Full disclosure: I volunteer for the food bank.] Go out to eat at the Eastlake Bar and Grill (or its sister restaurant, the Green Lake Bar and Grill) during the benefit dinner hours and, at a minimum, 50 percent of the cost of your meal will be donated to the food bank. Order off the special menu and 66 percent of the cost will go to the food bank. The goal is to raise $6,000, which would cover half of what the food bank will spend on food purchases in February. The University District Food Bank serves Eastlake and northeast Seattle. Last year was their busiest yet, with 55,000 customer visits and 2.3 million pounds of food provided. If you can't go out to dinner on Wednesday, you can donate to the food bank on their website.Advertise Here Read more...

Snow day: Eastlake stores are open and traffic is moving (video and photos)
Eastlake Ave. - Eastlake businesses were open this morning and traffic was moving on Eastlake Ave. despite the snow. A good two to three inches of snow had fallen by lunch time. It looks like most businesses are open although it's always a good idea to call ahead to check. I noted that Louisa's Cafe Bakery, Voxx Coffee, the 14 Carrot Cafe and Starbucks were open, as were numerous other stores on Eastlake Avenue E. Ed Wyse Beauty Supplies was open but just closed due to lack of customers. Little Water Cantina says they're open. If your business is open, add it to the comment list below. Traffic was moving on Eastlake (check out our video) and buses were appearing, although I'm not sure if they're on schedule or not. Metro has noted that all buses will remain on snow routes today. There have been some route cancellations but none that affect Eastlake. Side streets are still slick and tricky. Try to avoid driving if you can. The Lynn Street hill was bedeviling drivers earlier this morning so you might want to try to avoid it. There won't be any garbage, yard waste or recycling pickups today.  What's it like in your part of the neighborhood?

Help an Eastlake House
Eastlake Ave. - The child-compatible single family house at 2371 Franklin Avenue East needs a new owner.  It is unoccupied, bank-owned and somewhere entangled in the estate of the late Charles Berger.  I’ve inquired with Key Bank – the reported owner – but received only standardized responses from obviously non-caring Key Bank response centers. According to some neighbors, it has been unoccupied for many months.  According to others, there are unsecured access points that may be used by very discreet squatters. According to King County, Parcel #2902200916 is worth $525K.  Nah – it needs $100,000 of fix-up to be worth over $300,000.  I don’t have the inclination to take on such a project.  But we all have the motivation to save child-compatible housing 2 lots from our school from a long death by neglect. Anyone who is – or knows – a tenacious real estate agent competent in REO and Estate-entanglements, 2371 Franklin needs your help.Advertise Here Read more...
