Neighborhood News and Local Blog Roundup
Sunset Bowl by Seattlest Flickr Photographer extraordinaire lachance
- Our hearts and all our positive thoughts go out to Amber at the Rainier Valley Post and her neighbors. The RVP, which has been tireless about covering neighborhood crime, has had violence strike far too close to home. Amber's neighbor was stabbed to death yesterday by another neighbor, the victim's husband.
- Capitol Hill Seattle is still playing with Google Street View (no blame, we totally are too) and CHS stumbled upon an interesting scene on 12th Avenue street view. Looks like a parking cop is giving a lecture, surely an unpleasant moment for at least one party. It's frozen now for all to see.
- Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone, West Seattle Blog is all about the next round of holidays. They have not one, but two posts about West Seattle Christmas lights, as well as a post about where in West Seattle to get your Christmas tree.
- The dearly departed Sunset Bowl in Ballard is not worthy of historic landmark status, according to the city’s Landmarks Preservation Board.
- Vintage Seattle and the Central District News came through for our voracious craving of all things retro Seattle. The CDN shares a few photos of the long-lost Broadway & James cable car, while Vintage Seattle wished us a happy holiday with a gorgeous old postcard of Woodland Park.
- According to Southlake, their neighborhood is home to the worst intersection for pedestrians in the city. Which intersection should you look extra carefully both ways before crossing the street? Denny Way and Stewart Street.
