Though it’s not as hot a topic as the West Seattle Trader Joe’s project nearby (see yesterday’s update?), we know there are folks awaiting the opening of the new Les Schwab Tires on the southwest corner of 38th/Alaska, so we checked to see how that’s going. This one’s taking a bit longer, too; when we talked with a spokesperson in June, they were hoping to open this month. But that spokesperson tells WSB today that the new estimate for opening is mid-October.
I hope they will incorporate the street scape design that was hammered out over months of work within the triangle community. We would like to see a uniform approach to street trees and lighting. The public hearing is now set for October 11th to hear comments from the public about such things. I know that it hasn’t been voted on by the city council for enforcement quite yet but it would be a very pro-active gesture to be willing to incorporate those plans into their street trees at least.
Anyone know if they’re likely to do Grand Opening deals? I need a new set all around and times are tight…
Sorry, comment time is over.
