To be honest David I think the question probably came from your Rambla-esque imagery of Pike St. As far as I know there is no actual proposal.
That being said I should also say that Tony Russo and I have recently formed the Planning and Policy Comm…
Sorry, I forgot to add the link to my article on Great City: http://www.greatcity.org/2009/04/25/the-case-for-a-12th-ave-streetcar/
I have been working pretty closely with some people on this project so I might be a bit biased but I really think 12th is ultimately the best location. I recommend you read my little article about this on the Great City site () but I will highlight…
I think the real issue is parking. Parking adds big walls between the street and the vendors and worst of all, its free! I imagine that its for Pike Place workers but I just don't think there should be any parking at all. Or if any, minimal (like ne…
I am happy to talk to the business along Summit and see how cooperative they would be with this idea. I was thinking of bringing this up to the Capitol Hill Community Council as a new project for our Open Spaces committee too so that should be an al…
Well I suggest, and I'll try to do it myself, talking to business owners and at least getting their written support. Might be nice just to have and show our elected officials.
I really love that idea Dave. Although it might not work on busy streets since you would be so close to traffic. I think it would be great though if a few business teamed up and took two or three spaces. The little Summit Business district or the ba…

Transit Oriented Neighborhoods with Helle Søholt at Seattle City Hall, Bertha Knight Landes Room
April 28, 2009 from 6pm to 7:30pm
What should we look for in neighborhood planning to create walkable and bikeable neighborhoods, especially around transit sites? How do we transform auto-oriented communities to make pedestrian-friendly communities?

Hello Everyone,
One of the overwhelming ideas at the meeting last week was creating a mission statement and a set of goals that would help guide our group in its efforts and activities.
I thought that since we are an offshoot of the Great City Stre…
Nice, I like the multi organization approach.
Wiffle Ball - love it!.... or even an old schoolTrac-ball event?
I'm looking at getting a Boys and Girls Club fundraiser where we will have Big-wheel races down the local streets and cap it off with a BB…

Broadway Transit Oriented development meeting at Seattle Central Community college, Rm. 4106
March 25, 2009 from 6pm to 8pm
The city is holding meetings to find out what goes into the properties next to the new light rail stations once construction is finished on the tunnels. The next one for the Broadway station is Wednesday March 25!
When I pitched the idea of closing Greenwood Ave as part of this program to the Greenwood Community Council at its September, 2008 meeting, I proposed three partners:
* Phinney/Greenwood Climate Change Action Now's "Green My Ride" event
* The Seatt…
