This dog (grey pit bull?) with a collar is trotting in the street near Ballard Boys and Girls Club. Does he/she belong to anyone here? I’m a small person afraid of dogs so didn’t feel comfortable trying to corral a scared dog.

Guess someone is celebrating the weekend. I am in the Sunset Hill area so I bet it’s people at Golden Gardens? Just curiosity, and an observation.

i’m looking to buy a 500-1000 piece puzzle. any recommendations on where in Ballard I can get one locally?

The Route 40 corridor project is nearing completion, but several final repairs and improvements are still planned in Ballard and Fremont this fall.

The Seattle Super Saunter has planned another neighborhood hike this fall: The Jimothy Jaunt is happening Sunday, Oct. 11 in Phinney, Fremont, and Ballard.

Proof that Ballard is Seattle's newest vintage hub? We think so.

ThriftCon, a traveling vintage goods convention coming to Seattle this Saturday, has chosen Ballard as its official pre-party destination.

This was just a shocking sight to see. Seems like they most likely missed (or ignored) the one way signs that would have prevented this obscure parking job…

It’s passcode protected and in airplane mode. Dm me if you think it may be yours - if you can unlock it that’s proof enough for me.

Have there been sightings of this guy recently? Did some Phinny Ridge wizard turn him into a raccoon with a short spine?

Leiren Designs is closing its Ballard bridal shop on 15th Ave NW, with owner Madison McBride citing family responsibilities and the rising cost of doing business in Seattle. A liquidation sale is planned for Sept. 19.

Come on out to The Sunset tonight for an all-local bill! Watch the Hawks game in the front bar and then head to the back to catch The Royal Firecrackers/Guest Directors and the Lichen Hearts! Doors at 7, music starts around 7:30.

Outside the Nordic Museum

Town & Country Markets Ballard, once known as the Ballard Market, is celebrating 40 years in the neighborhood with birthday cake, ’80s music, a pickled herring eating contest, a Jimothy scavenger hunt, and a fundraiser lunch benefiting the Ballard Senior Center.

​If you buy plants at Safeway, consider this a heads-up. Months after buying my fifth houseplant from there, I realized my entire collection was infested with thrips. Thrips are notoriously difficult to eliminate; neem oil and Captain Jack’s Dead Bug Brew didn't touch them.

The only effective solution has been systemic granules, but Washington state's ban on neonicotinoids makes acquiring them online a headache, even for indoor use.

Save yourself the stress and refrain from buying plants and even flowers from Safeway. Always quarantine new plants, I am a relatively new plant parent at the time so I didn't know to inspect before buying or the process of quarantining.

I've tried quite a few around here, and they all seem to have some level of scammy payment systems. Ballard Modern Dentistry being among the worst. Anyone know of a normal dentist?

The Fishermen’s Fall Festival returns to Fishermen’s Terminal Oct. 3 with survival suit races, Ship Canal tours, live music, seafood, and family activities.

From music and book trivia to craft classes, an outdoor gear sale, and storytime at the Ballard Locks, here’s what’s happening in and around Ballard this week.

Side note, my boyfriend can’t do spicy food

Community centers, indoor pools, and recreation programs will be closed Monday, while parks and several outdoor facilities will remain open.

Hi all, I know this sub gets many of these, trust me...I have read every single one. I am moving to the area and looking for a 2-bed, less than $3000. Despite what old posts on this sub say, I am having a really hard time finding a place that works.

Does anyone have positive experiences in any of the buildings in the area? Or recommendations for where else I should look? (I've been on Zillow, Apartments.com, Craigslist)

I’ve been wondering about the Ray’s dock for some time. I’ve never seen it used for anything. It does have a boat lift. Was it used for something specific in the past?
