'''Cascade''' is an urban [[List of neighborhoods in Seattle|neighborhood]] abutting [[Downtown Seattle]], Washington, United States, located adjacent to [[South Lake Union, Seattle|South Lake Union]]. It is bounded by: Fairview Avenue North on the west, beyond which is the rest of the Cascade Neighborhood; the [[Interstate 5 in Washington|Interstate 5]] interchange for Mercer St to the north, beyond which is [[Eastlake, Seattle|Eastlake]]; [[Interstate 5 in Washington|Interstate 5]] on the east, beyond which is [[Capitol Hill, Seattle|Capitol Hill]]; and Denny Way on the south, beyond which is [[Denny Regrade, Seattle|Denny Triangle]].<!-- Note description in scn.org citation below --> It is surrounded by thoroughfares Mercer Street (eastbound), Fairview Avenue N. and Eastlake Avenue E. (north- and southbound), and Denny Way (east- and westbound).  The neighborhood, one of Seattle's oldest, originally extended much further: west to Terry Avenue, south to [[Denny Triangle, Seattle|Denny Hill]] ([[regrading in Seattle|regraded away]] 1929–1931) on the South, and east to Melrose Avenue E through the area now obliterated by Interstate 5.<ref name=CNC-hist>[http://www.scn.org/neighbors/cascade/history.htm History, Organizational Description, Boundaries], Cascade Neighborhood Council, November 1997. Accessed 6 June 2011.</ref> Some recent writers consider Cascade to omit the northern "arm" (east of Lake Union), while others extend it westward to cover most of South Lake Union.<ref>{{Harvnb|Link|2004|p=1}}</ref>

Historic structures in Cascade Neighborhood include St Spiridon's Orthodox Cathedral, [[Immanuel Lutheran Church (Seattle, Washington)|Immanuel Lutheran Church]], and several defunct laundry blocks. In 2007, a development named Alley24 was built around the New Richmond Laundry Building, a [[List of Seattle landmarks|City of Seattle Landmark]] located between John and Thomas Streets and Yale and Pontius Avenues North. The historic façade was maintained in the new design by architecture firm [[NBBJ]], who also relocated their headquarters to Alley24. The property is jointly owned by [[PEMCO]] and [[Paul Allen]]'s development company [[Vulcan Inc.]]<ref name=alley24>[http://greensource.construction.com/projects/2009/03_Alley24.asp Alley24, A New Face for Seattle: A LEED-certified speculative development in Seattle is both environmentally and economically sustainable] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111006122336/http://greensource.construction.com/projects/2009/03_Alley24.asp |date=October 6, 2011 }}, Sebastian Howard, GreenSource, March 2009.
