Meadowbrook is a neighborhood in the Lake City district (township annexed in 1954) of Seattle, Washington.[1] Meadowbrook is centered on open fields[2] adjacent to the Community Center,[3] Meadowbrook swimming pool,[4] and Nathan Hale High School.[5] It is bounded on the south by NE 95th Street and the Wedgwood neighborhood, on the north by NE 120th Street and Cedar Park, on the west by Lake City Way NE (State Route 522) and Victory Heights,[6] and on the east by 35th Avenue NE and Matthews Beach.[7][8]

The neighborhood is almost entirely residential. There are no commercial strips, though there are some small restaurants and other businesses. The area is served by a number of public schools, including John Rogers Elementary, Jane Addams Middle School, and Nathan Hale High School.[citation needed] The site where Nathan Hale High School now sits was formerly Meadowbrook Golf Course.[citation needed]
