With city planners focused on transit, Seattle parking will grow worse

Posted Fri, Mar 23, 4:34 p.m.

Really where has this worked? The point of the action by the city is too encourage transit use. This neighborhood demonstrates that this hasn't happened. Quite the opposite in fact.

What nonsense, that is a prime example why the city should stop planning for things that won't happen and deal with reality. Older neighborhoods such as this one were planned and the housing stock built, in the pre-war era, without the assumption that people would own cars. Indeed QA is ...

Best of 2010: Financially strapped Seattle Center is owed more than $1 million in back rent

Posted Wed, Dec 8, 1:01 p.m.

It's been clear for some 30 years now that once the "Seattle Center should be a Central Park/Lincoln Center" crowd became the dominant voice that the Center has become largely irrelevant and unvisited by most citizens. Simple observations like allowing the road at the south end of the Center House ...
