Location

Ravenna is a quiet neighborhood in northeast Seattle named after Ravenna, Italy. Students and professors from the nearby University of Washington call this home, but it's also popular with young families and professionals. You can go for a run through the 50 acres (20 hectares) of Cowen-Ravenna Park or fire up one of its many grills for a barbecue. Ravenna Park, located near University Village and the walking or biking route connecting Green Lake to Burke-Gilman Trail, is located within the neighborhood. Ravenna is bordered on the north by Wedgwood, on the east by Bryant, on the south by University District, and on the west by Roosevelt.
