Lake Washington Boulevard (Seattle) (historylink.org) Lake Washington Boulevard is a Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation property that extends from the Montlake neighborhood to Seward Park, on or near the shore of Lake Washington. John Charles Olmsted (1852-1920) located it in his 1903 plan for Seattle’s park and boulevard system to take advantage of Seattle’s landscape, including the lake, forested parks, and views across the lake and of distant mountains.

Lake Washington Boulevard crosses or borders a number of Seattle neighborhoods from Montlake (in the north) to Seward Park (in the south). Neighborhoods were identified through examination on Google and Bing Maps, which can highlight the boundaries of many neighborhoods. However, note that neighborhood boundaries are loosely defined and often overlap.

South Dakota (Wikipedia) South Dakota (/- dəˈkoʊtə/; Sioux: Dakȟóta itókaga, pronounced [daˈkˣota iˈtokaga]) is a U.S. state in the North Central region of the United States. It is also part of the Great Plains. South Dakota is named after the Dakota Sioux Native American tribe, which comprises a large portion of the population with nine reservations currently in the state and have historically dominated the territory. South Dakota is the seventeenth largest by area, but the 5th least populous, and the 5th least densely populated of the 50 United States. As the southern part of the former Dakota Territory, South Dakota became a state on November 2, 1889, simultaneously with North Dakota. They are the 39th and 40th states admitted to the union; President Benjamin Harrison shuffled the statehood papers before signing them so that no one could tell which became a state first. Pierre is the state capital, and Sioux Falls, with a population of about 192,200, is South Dakota’s largest city.
