Our neighborhood, centered around the Miller Community Center and Miller Playfield, is at the junction of Seattle's Central and Capitol Hill neighborhoods. We picture it to extend from East Mercer Street to East Pine Street and from 18th Avenue E. to 24th Avenue East. Here's a brief history of our association. and here are some old newsletters.
Our association meets (very occasionally) at the Miller Community Center (330 - 19th Avenue East, phone 684-4753) at 7 PM
Contact Andrew Taylor, Neighborhood Association Chair, to see what's going on, or to get on the mailing list, or for anything else.
They're neighbors from the 20th & Denny area, mainly from the Prince of Wales apartments and from the Miller Mews townhouses. In their own words:
" We're in the processing of adopting 20th between Madison and John and East Denny between 19th and 21st, basically the epicenter of the warzone."
They had a well-attended neighborhood cleanup and BBQ on Saturday April 30th. You can read about their efforts in this Capitol Hill Times article, or you can be low-tech and pick up the May 4th Capitol Hill Times. In that issue you can also read this thoughtful guest column by MADCAP member Bronwyn Doyle.
(you have to register online with the Capitol Hill Times to read the articles, but they don't annoy you as a result!)
