Called the Emerald City, Seattle sits like a guarded jewel. Practically surrounded by water and ringed by the Cascade Mountains, this city enjoys an enviable position as both a cosmopolitan center and an outdoor paradise. Next door is the most successful high technology industry in the world, Microsoft and the wettest spot on earth, the Olympic Peninsula. All of this converges in Seattle Washington and translates into a local culture that is young, vibrant and energetic, fueled by the caffeine jolt supplied by native barista baron, Starbucks.

The STREETWISE® map of Seattle showcases the center city and downtown area stretched along Elliott Bay. You can easily locate Pike s Place Historic District and Market, one of the well known landmarks within the city where you can watch the fish vendors enthusiastically toss salmon back and forth. What a sport! Seattle Center, just west of downtown is where you’ll find the Space Needle, Memorial Stadium and the Experience Music Project, a mecca for Jimi Hendrix fans and a celebration of diverse music.

An area map of Seattle extends from Lake City in the North to Sea-Tac Airport in the south, from Bellevue to Puget Sound. A complete index of streets, hotels, points of interest, shopping, education, culture, transportation and parks is clearly listed on the STREETWISE® Seattle Map.

Summary: "2nd Seattle Map-held up to my expectations!"

I'm a fan of Streetwise maps and have never been disappointed! I purchased an earlier version of the Seattle Streetwise map back in 2006 before the light rail came on board. I purchased this one because it was updated with all of the transit. Never failed me! If you are going anywhere never forget your Streetwise!

Summary: "Pretty good map of downtown Seattle"

Used this map on our recent trip to Seattle. Sturdy, folded nicely to fit inside my purse, had enough detail to get around very nicely, showed the one way streets. I would definitely recommend it.

Summary: "Downtown Details Only and No Capitol Hill"

I am a fan of the Streetwise map series, but this is a lackluster installment.
The map covers downtown Seattle well, but the detail stops at Broadway. The backside of the map provides only main arteries and a topographic overview of the extended Seattle area.
Unlike the San Francisco Streetwise map (which is excellent), the Seattle map does not include bus routes.
There are better (and cheaper) maps of downtown Seattle available.
Still, if you're only planning on visiting the downtown this map is useful and the lamination is nice for plotting routes with a dry-erase marker.

Summary: "Streetwise Seatlle"

This is an excellent carry around map. I must admit, I found myself using printouts from Google more often than this map. The map is designed for walking, unlike Rand McNally maps that favor drivers. It is clear where the Convention Center, Seattle Center and all other attractions are located. This is as useful as any Citywide street map I have found.

Summary: "Easy to Follow"

I used this all the time while I was in Seattle. It is so easy to read and really helps you get around. Also, small enough so you don't bring too much attention to yourself when trying not to look like a tourist who has no idea where they are going!
