About the Lakeview Neighborhood

Located along the eastern shores of Lake Washington, the Lakeview Neighborhood has a special, waterfront town charm. Lakeview residents value the visual and physical connection to Lake Washington. Wide, expansive views of the lake and the Olympic Mountains have been sustained through careful selection and placement of trees and vegetation, to avoid view obstruction of the lake from public streets and properties to the east. The neighborhood is a mix of single-family and multifamily residential areas, offices, neighborhood-oriented businesses with two commercial centers – Carillon Point and the Yarrow Bay Business District.

 Who We Are
 The Lakeview Neighborhood Association (LNA) is a non-profit association of neighbors who want to preserve and enhance the character of Lakeview. LNA takes its authority from by-laws which were drawn up by the original steering committee and adopted by the association.

 
 What We Do
 We educate ourselves and our neighbors about issues and opportunities affecting our neighborhood. We correspond with the City of Kirkland on issues affecting safety, transportation and growth in Lakeview.
 
 Our Goals

• To promote neighborhood cohesion and provide a forum for discussion and resolution of neighborhood issues.
• To promote responsive local government by maintaining effective lines of communication including information about local government actions and to serve as a liaison with other neighborhood associations.
• To promote public safety throughout the neighborhood including effective traffic controls, pedestrian safety, protecting residential streets and encouraging crime prevention.
• To promote growth and development appropriate to the residential character of the neighborhood.

How You Can Get Involved
 LNA meets on the second Thursday of March, June, and September at 7:00 PM at the Lakeview Assisted Living facility (6505 Lakeview Dr). Everyone is welcome, whether you rent or own, are permanent or temporary residents of the neighborhood. Show up to share what's on your mind and a conversation with your neighbors.
