The Pulse of Pike/Pine
Capitol Hill doesn’t do quiet — it does alive. One train gets you to downtown, UW, Bellevue, and Microsoft, with no transfer required. Espresso before work, Neumos after dark, Cal Anderson on Saturday mornings, and every kind of table in between. Collins on Pine sits two blocks off Broadway, close enough to everything and just far enough to sleep — with Capitol Hill Station right there to take you wherever the day (or night) needs to go.
