The new pedestrian bridge at Redmond Technology station, connecting the 520 trail, the light rail station, and two halves of the Microsoft campus, is opening this morning.
Continuing our deep dive on the proposed $1.35 billion Seattle transportation levy, we have a look at the promised 250 blocks of new sidewalks and how that stacks up against previous promises around expanding the pedestrian network. Story: theurbanist.org/2024/04/22/sea…

Love how our beloved Rittenhouse Square isn't treated like a museum, but is allowed to grow and evolve, reflecting the dynamism of Philadelphia's Center City. Plus it's just cool to see buildings from different eras next to each other!
I have heard lots of interesting arguments against building housing but this one takes the cake….😳 We will not address the housing crisis without increasing supply and direct investments into affordable housing from governments. theglobeandmail.com/politics/opini…
Washington State is ignoring its own climate goals to throw money at expanding a state highway system that's being underinvested in to the tune of $1 billion per year in deferred maintenance and this is absolutely not going to come up in this year's Governor's race.
Some days it can be frustrating to take transit and some days you make a two bus, one train connection with each leg timed perfectly and are able to bolt across the city faster than any other mode and it's all worth it.
Only 2,400 days between initial designs and implementation.
Massive chunks of Seattle’s downtown bike network are being cast in concrete right now and it is exciting to see. @seattledot
It's actually hard to believe we're celebrating 10 years of @UrbanistOrg. It seems like a few weeks ago we were just three people in a coffee shop talking about how to make Seattle better. But we're really just getting started. theurbanist.org/2024/04/20/kic…
No hay innovación más holandesa que ésta: un gancho que facilita el transporte de cajas de cerveza en bici.
The fact that DOT cannot lower a speed limit by even 1mph below 25 without 60 days notice and community board review is a completely unserious provision that will be disastrous for attempts to improve street safety.
In case there was any doubt, the language for Sammy's Law in the Big Ugly
After following The Urbanist’s reporting for years, I finally became a monthly donor at the start of this year, because it is worth supporting good local journalism that advocates for a better Seattle for everyone.

New Jersey built one subway station under its densest corridor, got really good ridership, and never did it again.
Seen by Copley Square: new @MBTA bus stop sign design!!! 🚏
This week, we launched a pilot to redesign bus stop signs in an effort to improve their accessibility and visibility. This bus stop signage pilot comes in advance of anticipated bus service changes to come as part of the Bus Network Redesign Program. 🔗 ow.ly/Mt1G50Rci2L
One of the Santa Monica Builder's Remedy projects appears to be moving forward as a by-right project (given expedited approval under the settlement) 1435 5th St has been upsized from 375 units in 13 floors to 422 units in 18 floors (picture is of old plans)
@UrbanistOrg It is one of the worst rail experiences coming from Vancouver to Seattle. Always a delay crossing the Frazier as hours and hours of freight trains are prioritized.
