Musk’s handling of Twitter is probably not a foreshadowing of the next 4 years…is it?

This looks familiar. New year, same car-brained idea to drive to the NYE fireworks

No matter the level of deterrent, warning, and free alternative, hoards of people will always insist on driving and insist on parking as close as possible. 4th Ave approaching the Space Needle

I would say the flow and overall feel of the Seattle Christmas Market was definitely improved this year. That said, having spent a week in Germany this month going to Christmas Markets, the main takeaway is how expensive the Seattle one is.

All in all a good time, but with a huge caveat that it will set you back quite a bit of money. Just for entry and gluhwein in mugs for 2 weeks were already over $100. Not sure who’s in charge but the paid, gated, timed entry is no good.

Luckily I bought season passes when they were half price in June, but that was still $20 each. Not a single German market cost anything to get in. A glühwein in a mug is $20 (mug was half price the last day, so $15). A brat? $13. This was all at least half the price in Germany

Absolute lunacy that @MayorofSeattle and @SoundTransit are going to blow the opportunity to make this the gateway into Seattle as a new transit hub with a 4th Ave & Jackson ST3 light rail station. A truly generational mistake

T-Mobile (Seattle Mariners) surprisingly far down the list. But honestly for me it’s the overall experience that’s worse than the distance. Narrow sidewalks, a needless loop ramp that just leads to stairs and a major road crossing. Lots of room for improvement

So I spent *way* too much time on this, but here's how long it takes to walk to the nearest train station at all 30 MLB stadiums

All the back and forth on this by @seattledot, @WaterfrontSEA, and the Pioneer Square Preservation Board has really jacked up the Yesler/Western intersection unnecessarily. It was originally supposed to be an even curb along Yesler with bulb outs on Western aligning crossings

Then, with the bike lane introduced (a major win), a notch in the curb on Yesler was for some reason introduced and the bulb on Western for some reason went away?

Now with the bike lane re-introduced (another major win that shouldn’t have been necessary) the notch is now existing (for no reason) and the bulb on Western likely will remain removed. Happy for the bike lane, but what an unnecessary mess. My own personal grievance

@kcexec and @MayorofSeattle once again using baseless renderings to sell real estate and alter @SoundTransit to make transit service worse for riders and miss a generational opportunity for a 4th Ave & Jackson mobility hub.

The picture the plan paints is very nice and I genuinely would love to see it unfold that way, but the main point here is that rerouting the @SoundTransit station away from 4th Ave & Jackson is not integral for this redevelopment nor big enough benefit to harm transit ridership

“real estate = civic value” real estate + transit rerouting = civic value - transit value
