Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelligencer references to Eastlake

It turns out it's easier than ever to find out about all things Eastlake, at least as far as the local papers are concerned.

The PI's Webtowns page for Eastlake (which appears to consolidate all mentions of Eastlake in the paper to a single web page) -- and if you're the type of person who uses RSS feeds and a newsreader, note that you can subscribe to the articles appearing on this page with this RSS link.

The Seattle Times has their own page for Eastlake, and you can always search their archives for the word "eastlake" using this link.

Wikipedia's Eastlake entry

I was surprised to stumble across an entry in Wikipedia for Eastlake. Other relevant-to-Eastlake Wikipedia entries of note: Lake Union, the University Bridge, and Lake Union Dry Dock Company. (All of these links were in the original Eastlake article.)

Did I miss any?

Update: Commenter Aaron pointed out an entry for Colonnade Park.

(Wikipedia is a multilingual, web-based, free content encyclopedia project.)

Ask.com business search for Eastlake

Local search is really hot right now, and my current favorite is city.ask.com. (Remember Ask Jeeves? They dropped the Jeeves part awhile ago -- it's just ask.com now.)

This link will take you to a search page already queued up for the Eastlake neighborhood. Want to find restaurants in Eastlake, or dry cleaners, or grocery stores? It's easy -- just type any of those in as the "Business or Category".

Pictures of Eastlake

flickr - almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing application in the world - makes it really easy to find photos of particular subjects or of particular geographic areas. Every once in awhile, I'll look through all the photos tagged as "Eastlake" and "Seattle" (since there is more than one Eastlake around the world) and see how much I recognize. I've even found photos taken with me in them (usually as an innocent bystander).

Here's a link to pictures on flickr tagged with "Eastlake" and "Seattle". Do you see any photos of anything you recognize?
