amazon brought jobs. it was seattle city council’s responsibility to pace the way to build housing

seattle is 45,000 homes short of matching their jobs per home ratio of 2010

what did bruce harrell do for 12 years on city council? jack shit. now he’s running for mayor

Walkable urbanism is so underrated. Woke up, walked my daughters two blocks to pick up donuts & coffee, then walked to the the park one block in the other direction. Now sitting five blocks away watching them play by the lake. Zero cars involved. Everyone should have this luxury.
