Unique neighborhoods are what make up this extraordinary city we call Seattle.  This week’s frame is named after one of the major highlights: 

GREENWOOD in GREENISH


This model’s appealing soft square silhouette is a contemporary style that delivers a relaxed versatility with just enough definition to stand out in the crowd.  The muted matte green finish is airy & light as Seattle’s best spring day.

Greenwood is one of Seattle’s north central districts that neighbors our own Fremont area. Some people consider it “Phinneywood” now, as the growing volume of businesses and residential zones blur the divide between the two locales. It is abuzz with restaurants, bars, local mom & pop shops, and cool boutiques. Also, the arts are alive & well with such venues as The Art Center of Greenwood, Taproot Theater, and  the 2nd Friday Art Walk.

Eyes on Fremont Collection’s frame of the week: Meet the “Sunday Market” in Dove/Teal

Who doesn’t love a neighborhood street fair? This week’s featured EOF Collection style is all about Fremont’s own:

SUNDAY MARKET in Dove/Teal
Named after one of the oldest street markets in Seattle, this contemporary cat-eye silhouette delivers crisp contrast with its defined brow line. The Dove/Teal color is a less conventional springtime mix that still offers a down-to-earth feel.

Rain or shine, Fremont’s Street Market occupies the corner of Evanston ave N on 34th street every Sunday.

The Fremont Sunday Market is a year-round indoor/outdoor street market that graces the heart of Fremont (a.k.a “the center of the universe”) every weekend.  It has been a go-to for eclectic art & handicrafts, cool second hand goods, local bites, flowers, & produce since 1990. A broad mix of entertainment can also be expected, as Fremont draws upon Seattle’s creative and eccentric crowd.
