Kirkland 'Hawk House' Returns In 2017 After Compromise

KIKRLAND, WA - It's a tribute to the Seattle Seahawks so loud and proud that it's probably visible from outer space. And that's part of the problem.

After complaints, homeowner Anthony Mish didn't do his boldly bright "Hawk House" in 2016. But this year he's bringing it back after coming to a compromise with the city of Kirkland and local residents. Mish has a permit for the display this year and approval from the police, fire, and parks departments.

“We hope the many people who drive by the show are respectful to the neighbor’s property and keep in mind the street is home to families, many of whom have small children who will be trying to sleep," said Lynn Zwaagstra, director of Kirkland Parks and Community Services, in a city press release.

Hawk House will run through Jan. 1 according to the following schedule:

• Monday/Tuesdays: Static lights, no music
• Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday: 5 to 9 p.m. light display with music
• Friday, Saturday: 5 to 10 p.m. light display with music
• Dec. 24 - 26: 5 to 10 p.m. light display with music

The Hawk House is located along the 11000 block of Northeast 100th Street near the intersection of 111th Avenue Northeast. Mish told Q13 Fox that he worked about 14 hours a day to get the lights up by Nov. 23.
