Located at the center of Seattle’s 534-acre Discovery Park, commanding unparalleled views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, Fort Lawton’s natural beauty and serene atmosphere create an unrivaled living experience.
In 1896 Ambrose Kiehl, a civil engineer, photographer, musician and family man from Port Townsend was hired by the Army to survey and clear the new Fort Lawton site and supervise the construction of its buildings—including The Ambrose.
The Ambrose features a generous front porch and formal living and dining rooms. The kitchen adjoins the rear porch, and the basement and attic include extra living and storage space. Thoughtfully renovated spaces that retain the home’s classic charm, enviable kitchen, and baths with modern systems for today’s living, and hardwood flooring throughout the main floor.

A Ketchikan company is working with WSU researchers to see whether its kelp-based biostimulant can help grapes and berries withstand environmental stress.
From the floatplane, reddish-brown kelp traces the edges of the small islands between Ketchikan and Prince of Wales Island like brushstrokes on the surface of the water. Up close, on a rare 70-degree July day in Alaska, the kelp is glossy and beautiful, though the wind coming off the water makes it nearly impossible to…
PlantCon Is Coming for Seattle’s Windowsills
The nation’s largest gathering for houseplant lovers makes its Pacific Northwest debut this August with 200 booths, hands-on workshops, and a DJ.
My house is full of plants, enough that I’ve lost count. Houseplants have the same suspicious math as tattoos: One is rarely the final number.
