Your next chance for an update on West Seattle light rail is 9:30 am Tuesday (March 18), when a briefing on Sound Transit‘s West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions is the major item on the agenda for the City Council Transportation Committee, chaired by District 1 Councilmember Rob Saka. The ST presenters’ slide deck can be previewed here; also scheduled to present is the city’s team focused on the project, and their slide deck is here. The agenda document explains how to watch/attend the meeting, either in person at City Hall or online via Seattle Channel, and how to participate in the public-comment period.

Lovely how this rendering of 28th SW and Yancy completely removes the West Seattle Health club from the image.I hope the City and District 1 Councilmember are considering how inconvenienced 6,000+ West Seattle Health club members and other residents might feel about that proposed pillar placement.

That rendering really puts it into perspective. What a massive ugly waste of money

Light rail is less of an “ugly waste of money” than the car-clogged roads and freeways every morning, five days a week.

Massive and ugly you say?

How about that plus noise pollution, air pollution, death, injury, redlining.

Sounds right up your alley! Here you go:

Ymmm, WSBlog, what TIME is the meeting and WHERE?! #Reporting101 #Journalism101 🙄😉

Thanks for pointing out my omission. The story does say where (“in person at City Hall”) but not the time (9:30 am). Adding that.

Holy caps, XTIAN, why the drama?

It would have taken less time for you to just Google this information than write a comment that mocks someone providing an important public service.
