georgetown is a small vulnerable neighborhood in seattle. what makes it unique and interesting can stand little alteration. so what do the developers do? they demolish one of buildings is a dominant landmark. i am sure the buildings deserved landmark status, but since city hall and local developers are symbiotic in their greed, it could only be stopped by strong public outcry. having said that, since a large majority of seattlaloadians are imports why would they feel any connection to the past, or any passion to preserve it from the wreaking ball? maybe connection to hills, water and air are more lasting.
