We need all types of housing.
And we need thousands more affordable homes.

In our car-centric society (US), pedestrian malls have not proven themselves in the past - in cities of all scales. We just don’t have the density to support ped malls.
But would love to see that change. – at Seattle, WA
yeah i mean we still let cars barrel through the market on weekends too so i mean a safe start might be pedestrianizing it then? just see how it goes. or do it during the week when its maybe slower?

#scidpda and #interimcda to be united on this front. @SoundTransit needs to do the right thing…not easy thing. – at Seattle, WA

Yes, we need them to be accessible.
Stairs for seniors only dangerous in US. In other cultures/countries (European, Asian, South American) they expect seniors to stay active and many live in buildings just like this. And children learn to navigate stairs. – at Seattle, WA
