关于麦迪逊公园社区
The 麦迪逊公园 neighborhood 是西雅图最大、最多元化的社区. 它有着悠久的历史，可以追溯到世纪之交之前, but it’s only been since then that 麦迪逊公园 has seen significant development changes. 今天, this area is known for its tree-lined streets and proximity to many different types of shopping opportunities.
在20世纪早期，麦迪逊公园是一个避暑胜地社区. The land had been logged and sold off in lots to individual buyers who would build weekend cabins along with Lake Washington during hot months. 当有轨电车到达西雅图的时候, it made getting out to “the country” much easier for locals looking for a respite from city life.
因为游客年复一年地回来, 带上他们的朋友, 更多的永久住宅建在这些地产上, as well as attractive hotels explicitly designed for those travelers that brought business into town by filling up rooms every season of the year. 正值二战前的鼎盛时期, many resorts were lining both sides of 23rd Ave E between Fisher Pavilion and Seward Park (which is now a 西雅图 City Park and was built by the CCC in 1937) on land that had been logged not too long before. 这些度假村都不复存在了, but there are still some old cabins here and there to remind us of what used to be.
二战后, many people came home from Europe or Asia looking for work right where they left off years ago when their lives were interrupted with war-time service overseas. 像这样, 麦迪逊公园 began seeing an influx of new families who moved into existing homes rather than building brand new ones like those seen at the turn of the century resort era (and even more recently during the post-war construction).
今天 there are so many family-friendly activities in this area that it would be impossible to list them all here! 有一件事你可以相信, 虽然, is a great place with plenty of space where your kids (or dogs) will love running around close by while you spend some time shopping or dining out along one of 西雅图’s best retail corridors!
关于麦迪逊公园社区的事实
该社区的人口只有27人以上,占地约3平方英里，靠近华盛顿湖. 麦迪逊公园西雅图地区是以詹姆斯·麦迪逊总统的名字命名的, 从未去过美国西北地区的人, 但他的名字仍然是这个社区历史的一部分.
In 1851 John J Ohmer bought 640 acres from Henry Yesler at public auction for $700, then built a cabin on the eastern shoreline where he raised cattle and fruit trees until selling it to Thomas Mercer in the 1860s. He used proceeds from that sale to open downtown 塔科马’s first bank called Pullman & 公司, 与另外两家银行合并后成为第一国民银行, 包括普吉特湾国家银行. His family owned this land until 1954 when they donated it to the city for a park known as 麦迪逊公园, 任命詹姆斯·麦迪逊总统.
