Fremont, WA Neighborhood Information

Home to the renowned Summer Solstice Parade & Pageant
and packed with an eclectic mix of breweries (Hale’s Ales, Fremont Brewing),
company offices (Google, Brooks Sports, Cutter & Buck), and even a
chocolate factory (Theo Chocolate)—Fremont is an enticing Seattle enclave that
offers Pacific Northwest living with a twist. Dubbed by locals as the “center
of the universe,” this renowned neighborhood is brimming with boutiques,
restaurants, and public art. For some fresh air, nearby Gas Works Park offers
19 acres of green space, and just beyond that, Seattle’s diverse collection of
neighborhoods unfold in every direction, and the buzz of downtown is just a
short commute away.
