The beauty of Seattle�s Greenwood lies in its contrasts. It is an old-fangled neighborhood with a trendy edge; where coffee shops and espresso bars mix with caf�s; shops; and galleries patronized by antique hounds. The locals dub it �Seattle�s hidden treasure.� Just south; Phinney occupies a high ridge that rises from the western shore of Green Lake. The neighborhood owes its name to Guy Phinney; a wealthy immigrant from Nova Scotia who developed the private estate that became Woodland Park. Together these neighborhoods have forged a common bond; illustrated by the formation of the Greenwood-Phinney Chamber of Commerce. The area hosts a world-class zoo and is home to the only Tibetan Buddhist monastery in the world outside of Tibet.
