- The Pacific Northwest is home to more Waterfalls than anywhere else in North America. The Northwest Waterfall Survey was founded in order to create a thorough inventory of these outstanding natural features.
- Maple Leaf, Seattle (Wikipedia)
The area that is now the Maple Leaf neighborhood appeared on maps in 1894 as a plat by real estate promoters and was called the Maple Leaf Addition to the Green Lake Tract. The name may have come from the Maple Saw Mill that operated to the east on Lake Washington or from some maple trees that once grew in the area. There is also an apocryphal story that Maple Leaf was so far north of downtown Seattle that it got its name for being near Canada.
