Kirkland Apartments

largest parks in Kirkland are the Juanita Bay wetlands and the downtown Peter Kirk Park. Lake Washington adds the beautiful water aspect to parks and recreation with water activities like sailing, swimming and fishing. A paved trail, perfect for rollerblading, walking or running winds through many of the parks along the surrounding area of the lake and is open until dusk in the summertime. Add these recreational areas to the many neighborhood parks and those of the ten cities of the Puget Sound region and you have a place to go for most any outdoor recreation. To take advantage of the numerous parks and activities, a website titled Myparksandrecreation.com can direct you to the many sports and activities available to residents of Kirkland apartments. Softball and baseball are very popular in Kirkland with the city winning the National Little League World Series in 1982. Since 1999 Kirkland has been home to the Junior World Series at Everest Park in Kirkland.

Kirkland is a very pedestrian-friendly town, with considerations for pedestrians and cyclists made with every street and road improvement and construction projects. Walking maps have been designed and are available online at the city's website for at least seven neighborhoods. Those are in addition to the many maps available for the neighborhood and Puget Sound parks.

Shopping is a delight in Kirkland with a great open air feel to shopping in downtown with the many attractive shops and dining establishments. Boutiques here and in the smaller neighborhoods of Carillon Point and Juanita Village feature special decorating for your Kirkland apartment, while the larger retail shops exist more on 85th street and at Totem Lake.

Kirkland is home to several notable businesses. Google has a huge branch that has an expansion planned in Kirkland, and Amaze Entertainment, ATG Stores and Bungie Studios, as well as other high tech and gaming companies make their home here.
