for the few of us that grew up in Seattle and remember the dark ages, we are all shocked and awed at what has been done to our once sleepy, dark, dank town. the city is being transformed in ways we could never have imagined. did the rain stop? are there more sun days? why are so-many people moving to a place that increases their rick of major depressive episodes, heroin addiction or worse suicide? i had to move to so. cal. to survive, but once recovered, i moved back.

alas, i no longer live there, and now reside in a town that is going through it's own growing pains, it just does not effect me the same way. in fact i favor the "improvements"; the life-long locals have no clue what's it like to witness a major transformation.

georgetown is a small neighborhood in seattle, that can stand little destruction, so what do the developers do? they demolish one building that a dominant landmark. i am sure the building deserved landmark status.
