McLeod Residence

The McLeod Residence was an art cooperative and gallery based in the Belltown area of Seattle, Washington.

[1] It was opened in December 2006 by Lele McLeod (born Leanne Ng) and Buster Butterfield McLeod (born Erik Benson of Seattle's Robot Co-op & 43 Things) as a blended gathering place for members interested in art, technology, and networking.

The space was used for a six-room sale gallery, a bar open for members-only events, and a social club.

[7][8] Due to difficulties in complying with local fire codes, the McLeod Residence's owners announced that they would close their current gallery effective October 31, 2008.

[10] On May 17, 2007, the McLeod Residence hosted a benefit for Eric Howk, a member of Seattle band The Lashes, who was seriously injured in an accident.

The McLeod Residence occupies the upper floor of this building.
