Welcome to Loving Seattle: Love letters for the past, present and future Seattleites

I hope you be filled with Seattle love as you read about its lesser-known but colorful and layered history presented through Seattle’s landmarks.


Land Acknowledgment

I acknowledge that I live and write on the Indigenous land, the traditional territories of the Coast Salish Peoples, particularly the still-unrecognized Chief Seattle’s Duwamish Tribe. I am grateful for their spirit as I write on the land on which they have been and still are the original stewards and storytellers.

As a small part in honoring the value that Chief Seattle’s People have shared with us, I pay Real Rent Duwamish.
