The presence of a used bookstore in a neighborhood is also solid evidence of a successful neighborhood. Don’t forget the branch Library and Rainier Valley Cultural Center only two blocks away. While along the periphery we have a great coffee shop, a Vietnamese and Ethiopian food, a very creative t-shirt shop and so much more within walking distance beyond that. There’s also a neighborhood historic center and nearby arts organizations to help promote the long traditions and culture of the neighborhood

Thanks for the great nod Dwell.
