Roosevelt, 6501, 12th Avenue Northeast, Green Lake, Seattle, King County, Washington, 98115
Roosevelt is a north Seattle neighborhood. Its major artery, previously 10th Avenue, was renamed Roosevelt Way after Theodore Roosevelt’s death in 1919. From 1928 through 1980, the Roosevelt district contained a Sears department store, despite being predominantly a residential neighborhood. Following its demise, the property was renovated as Roosevelt Square, which currently includes an all-natural supermarket Whole Foods Market, a local and family-owned pharmacy Bartell Drugs, a Mud Bay pet store, and a Starbucks, among other businesses. Cowen Park and Froula Playground are two parks in the neighborhood.
