Capitol Hill got the annual “Night Out” block party thing going early this time — see our pictures from Saturday’s first ever Summit Block Party here. Tuesday night, the rest of the city — and the Hill — gets in on the act of taking over streets to grill, enjoy a cold drink and meet neighbors.

Registration to “officially” close your street appears to still be open here. In the meantime, here are a few of the Capitol Hill — and First Hill — parties we know about. Want to spread the word about a party on your part of the Hill? Add a note in the comments.
2012 Capitol Hill Night out — August 7th
- — “August 7th is The Annual City Market Block Party! Free burgers, dogs and drinks. 5:00PM to 10:00PM. Music supplied by the Crescent Lounge. Come on out!”
- — “We’re doing our 2nd year! Stop by if you are out cruising the block parties Tuesday….”
- — Help Angel’s celebrate 100 years of serving Seattle.
- — 9th Avenue between Madison and Marion — “Finally meet your First Hill neighbors! Come out of your houses and down to a cordoned-off street to eat pizza (while it lasts) and play games. Bingo starts at 7:30! We’ll provide some family-friendly refreshments, and there are plenty of neighborhood watering holes to visit just steps away if you’re feeling thirsty. Feel free to bring snacks, dogs, kids, cards, cupcakes, and whatever else you think a good party needs. ” — Facebook
- — Melrose Avenue East at the foot of the East Republican Street stairs: “As part of Seattle Night Out, we will be throwing a street party on the future Melrose Promenade. Bring your Weber grills, your bratwursts, your veggie patties, and more to our night out on the Promenade!” — Facebook
Block party out at the 1600 block of Boylston! I believe, anyway–we’ve had fliers for it everywhere :-)
