Kids play in the wading pool at smaller Cal Anderson Park. Many condos and residences with stunning Victorian and Colonial style homes. Montlake is a wonderland of flowering paths, lush parks, and historic homes. Nestled between the Washington State Arboretum, North Capitol Hill, and the University District, water surrounds the north end.
