- The Ring Nebula (also catalogued as Messier 57, M57 and NGC 6720) is a planetary nebula in the northern constellation of Lyra. Such a nebula is formed when a star, during the last stages of its evolution before becoming a white dwarf, expels a vast luminous envelope of ionized gas into the surrounding interstellar space.
- Seattle Neighborhoods: Lake City — Thumbnail History (historylink.org)
Lake City is a northeastern Seattle neighborhood located between Interstate 5 and Lake Washington, and stretching from NE 85th Street to the Seattle City line at NE 145th Street. The automobile defined Lake City. Instead of small communities growing up around trolley stops such as in the Rainier Valley, Lake City grew in a line. Businesses popped up along the roadside, with no particular point becoming the center. The community did not lack focus, however, and it proved itself capable of responding to its needs, whether it was to build a library, buy an ambulance, create a business district, or protect the environment.
