King County Metro route 10 is a relatively short route, traveling roughly three miles from downtown to the northeastern edge of Volunteer Park.
It starts off in the Pike and Pine corridor downtown, then heads east on Pike (Pine on the way back down) to Capitol Hill, turning on Olive and sticking with it as it turns into John. Then it heads north on 15th Avenue—the main bus serving this micro-neighborhood of the Hill.
Eventually, it runs past Volunteer Park before stopping near by Lake View Cemetery.
Because it runs through some of Seattle’s densest areas, the inventory is heavily dominated by condos. Once it gets far enough north on 15th, though, it starts heading though one of Seattle’s most mansion-heavy neighborhoods—an abrupt change in scenery from one block to the next.
We’ve found six notable homes along the route, from the edge of First Hill to right by Volunteer Park.
