Those architectural renderings of the SLUTowers in the Seattle Times's slideshow (images 1 & 4) appear to have been compressed vertically to make the buildings seem shorter.
The "extraordinary public benefits" given to the city by Vulcan should include real transit, bicycle and pedestrian improvements in (and to) South Lake Union. A two-block cycle track is not enough.
I'm curious. Why are people against those buildings? This is a city. The re-grade land south of Lake Union has been underutilized since the 1930s.Ttragically so, considering it's less than a mile from the core. I think it's great that more buildings are being developed there. I do think there should be a lot of transit and cycling improvements made alongside the development, like DOUG suggests. Otherwise, traffic will be worse.
Solo and Stevens may have been "together" for two months, but both went to UW at the same time and they've clearly known each other for a decade or more, and it wouldn't be unlikely that they've dated off and on.
I have my own opinions about each of them based on how they've come across in the media, and all I will say about that is I hope they go live in Florida, far away from here. But as for them getting married, it doesn't really seem like it's our place to decide who they should or should not marry any more than it is to tell same-couples they can't marry. It's not quite the same, and they haven't been oppressed in the same way, but something seems similar.
Cheap trick.
Therapy, therapy, and more therapy.
