There are a lot of high elevations and steep streets here. I found a cool page that lists the highest elevations and steepest streets in Seattle. Queen Anne Hill, which we can see from our window, is the 4th highest point in the city. The steepest street in the city is a 21% grade, which seems pretty darn steep, but the steepest street in San Francisco is a 31.5% grade. That's a lot steeper than the streets in Dallas and Fort Worth.
