After Wednesdays Light Rail meeting commissioners are determined cut thru the Delridge
Genesee neighborhood, raising hell. Destroying homes, invading privacy with Light Rail riders looking into Apartment windows. Let alone 5 years of traffic nightmares.
There is another option. Just please try to imagine this….
After crossing the Dawamish River a stop near Chelan’s, then west to Harbor Ave. The curve north a travel only 6 blocks to Port Property near Pier 1 and Jack Block park.
Plenty of area for parking and transit center. Then circle around and go back south and enter a tunnel before Spokane St and Avalon Way. Tunnel to 35th and Fauntleroy and Junction.
The Magic of this route is the port already own a large portion of property. The Genesee Delridge neighborhood is not disturbed. And a future expansion tunnel to the Admiral District and West Seattle High School would be easy.
I will call it the “PIER ONE ALTERNATIVE”
