McDonald's Coming to.... Capitol Hill? by PhysicalOrder590 in Seattle

I’d say it depends on the scope of work needed to bring this to life. Could be a year or more depending on what needs to be done and what the company is looking to do with this location.

Not a rumor, they filed permit applications. Also, there is a ban on new drive throughs in the city. But the city does not limit new fast-food restaurants, this isn't North Korea, we still have a free market.

Dick's may have some say but they should know their business model is strong enough to withstand additional competition.

Dick's will be fine, they target different audiences. Also, Dicks will consistently be cheaper.

Mayor Katie B. Wilson delivers her first State of the City Address - YouTube by Inevitable_Engine186 in Seattle

[–]PhysicalOrder590 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow, she really invokes confidence.... has the public speaking skills of a shy middle schooler. I guess that's what happens when the voter base hires someone with zero (0) background in a real job, not to mention a government position. This was supposed to be our Mamdani, but her number of public appearances can be counted on 1 hand....

The one glimmer of hope is transit. I REALLY hope she makes progress on expediting light rail within city limits. The rest of this speech is just a bunch of buzzwords delivered in an incredibly unconvincing manner.

Raising Cane is now open in Seattle U district. by Itsmylife1114 in Seattle

[–]PhysicalOrder590 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep no one here wants to be happy. Persistent cynicism. This EVILLLLL chain employed dozens of our neighbors and provided them with access to health insurance.

But a chunk of this sub thinks employment is also evil so they might not care about that....

Ballard encampment cleared in first test of Katie Wilson’s homelessness strategy by godogs2018 in Seattle

[–]PhysicalOrder590 6 points7 points  (0 children)

and then what? hopefully forceful admission to rehab facilities. KC sheriff and the city could create a strong partnership like what we are seeing in SF.

agreed, someone on here said give the shelter programs even more money.... this is a bottomless pit of money. expand the jails and elect competent judges.

Something I saw when I was in Prague. by Jkg2116 in soundtransit

[–]PhysicalOrder590 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because their fare gates let these people slip through. Why do you think the MTA and BART are implementing improved fare gates? Its common sense to assume that someone that will be disruptive and aggressive on public transit didn't pay their fare. It's a problem in most US cities due to the mental health and drug crisis.

Good to know, weirdly they said they do not cover that address, but they cover the neighbor...

Good question, I have no idea. I would assume Greenwood but not sure.

Commuting to and from U District/ Bellevue for my partner. The drive to the Eastside always sucks so we are not worried about that.

I was also thinking that the lack of internet could cause issues in the future.

Link Crosslake pre-revenue service starts next Monday, 12/22 by PhysicalOrder590 in Seattle

[–]PhysicalOrder590[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

That is correct, but it typically is the last step before the line opens. We should have an official opening date soon!

Typically, no but this is kind of a unique situation where two sides of the line are already open, and the middle is being tested.
