The lay of the land
The trick is finding the quiet block. North of Roy Street and east of 15th, Capitol Hill turns residential fast — single-family Victorians, brick four-flats, and the occasional 1920s co-op.
Volunteer Park is the anchor. The Asian Art Museum, the conservatory, and a 75-foot water tower with a 360° view that almost nobody knows is open to the public.
