@waterfrontparksea.bsky.social why couldn't we keep this energy this year? People yearn for third spaces, especially during the big dark and just found out this won't be happening this year due to bureaucracy, so disappointed in the city! Give us a reason to come down in winter!! 😭

Tuli Lodge gave Seattle a new reason to gather: community, cold plunges and an affordable sauna experience in the city. Here's our Q&A with founder & CEO Hannah Goldstein: https://bit.ly/4rD35Gd

After spending this past weekend in Vancouver BC and coming back to Seattle the population density there is just staggering. I live in one the most densely populated neighborhoods in the city (Cap Hill) and it’s almost like coming back home to a sleepy suburb.

I spoke to a few folks on the streets in Vancouver about their thoughts of the Granville pedestrianized street post World Cup and quite a few said it’s been dead and not as busy. That street is not going to be as busy as the World Cup was now but I thought it was still awesome!

Just awful to hear this. RIP Christian, you should still be here with us and teaching kids at Thurgood Marshall Elementary. Everyone deserves to get home safely. #VisionZero

Just finished a 3.5 hour bike tour around Copenhagen and I have thoughts. Still very good bicycle infrastructure especially compared to North American standards however the Dutch really take so much more space away from cars!

Tree advocates don’t care about orcas or emissions. They are trying to stop housing. The sooner everyone realizes how NIMBYs launder their public comments the sooner we can move on to building productive housing reform.

Huge thanks to the 100+ people who joined our first-ever Volunteer Organizing Symposium! Neighbors from across Seattle came together to learn, connect, and grow the movement for streets that are safe and welcoming for everyone to walk, bike, roll, and live. #SafeStreets
