Native Seattleites?
How many native Seattleites or native Washingtonians are around on this board?
I was born at Cabrini hospital in Seattle and grew up the Ravenna-Bryant neighborhood, attended Bryant Elementary, Eckstein and Roosevelt HS.
I moved away in the late 70's and after having lived in GA, TX and CA decided to move back here in 1989.
Anybody else…?

Born at Northwest Hospital to an Ingraham Mom and Lincoln HS (Seattle) Dad...actually moved to first Skagit county and then Lewis County for my childhood.
Came back to Seattle proper in the early 90's to attend the UW and haven't left since. Every member of all 5 living generations of my family lives within 100 miles of Downtown Seattle...and, come to think of it, it's the same situation for my Wife... 
I myself have never lived more than 1 mile from I-5... |

I was born in a prominent hospital in Seattle but if mention the name, I know most of you have never heard of it and if I do mention it, it will give away my age.   |

If most of us have never heard of it, it must not be in existence anymore?
I can only think of a few, I mentioned Cabrini where I was born already, and then there was Doctor’s Hospital, Seattle General and Maynard… |

Good ol Doc Maynard lol
I think I was about 15 when Maynard closed. The only reason I remember is that my dad was a patient there right before it closed.
