Uptown, Belltown, Seattle, King County, Washington, 98121
Lower Queen Anne (officially known as Uptown since 2021) is a Seattle neighborhood located at the base of Queen Anne Hill. The toponym usually refers to the shopping, office, and residential districts to the north and west of Seattle Center, however its limits are not precise. The area is linked to Upper Queen Anne, the shopping center at the top of the hill, by the Counterbalance, an unusually steep part of Queen Anne Avenue N. named for the cable cars that originally went up and down it.
