Inballard.com
Inballard.com is the original online guide to Ballard. It was created in 1998 as a way to showcase the best places to drink, eat, shop, and play in, what was then a very sleepy, quiet Ballard community. There were many great little boutiques that were going unnoticed and so the idea of a site promoting the best places came about. Since then Ballard has certainly changed and has become a booming, vibrant neighborhood. If you are interested in being listed on the site Download the Get Listed info sheet PDF (44 kb).
