Bryant and Ravenna-Bryant

Bryant is a residential neighborhood in northeast Seattle, Washington. It is bounded by 25th Avenue NE on the west, beyond which is Ravenna; NE Blakeley Street, Union Bay Place NE and NE 45th Street on the south, beyond which is University Village; Sand Point Way NE on the east, beyond which are Laurelhurst and Windermere; and NE 75th Street on the north, beyond which are View Ridge and Wedgwood.

The neighborhood is sometimes known as Ravenna-Bryant, due to its proximity to Ravenna Park.

Bryant Park is located on NE 65th Street at 40th Avenue NE cite web | url=http://www.scn.org/rbca/rbmap1.html | title= "Ravenna-Bryant" neighborhood boundary | accessdate=January 7 | accessyear=2007 ] .

Bryant Elementary School is located at 33rd Avenue NE and NE 60th Street. The school was named after William Cullen Bryant. Bryant School has an event called the Bryant Blast, now in the fall, that offers many games and food, including bouncy toys, cake walks, raffles, and more. On the 4th of July, an annual block party takes place along the two streets west of the elementary school. The neighborhood fire fighters take part (if they're not called away for an emergency) by leading the parade down the street, complete with kids pulling red wagons, decked out pets, adults dressed as historical figures and the annual Statue of Liberty lady. The neighborhood is also home to Eckstein Middle School with one of the best music and jazz programs in the region for students.

The Duchess Bar on 55th west of 30th Avenue NE is a popular place for patrons to watch University of Washington football games, which are played just south of the neighborhood at Husky Stadium.
