Category Archives: Leschi

The Leschi neighborhood is directly south of Madrona. Leschi follows along with Lake Washington on east and Martin Luther King Jr. Way on the west until ending at I-90. To the south of Leschi is the Mt. Baker neighborhood.

While Leschi is mostly residential, with many homes having views of Lake Washington, the Eastside (Bellevue, etc.), and the Cascade Mountains, Leschi also features a small business district along the shores of Lake Washington. The business district features such restaurants as Daniel’s Steakhouse and the Blue Water Bistro. There are also several other shops including Starbucks and Leschi Food Mart which is well known for its butcher and a marina where boats stay year round.
