This summer, we revisited the CID Coalition as they address a new challenge that threatens the CID. The regional transit service (Sound Transit) is working on an expansion of the light rail system in the Seattle region. Although this might seem like a great opportunity for the city, Sound Transit has selected the CID as the transit hub location for all of this new expansion. This project would have huge environmental impacts, including displacing long-time residents and between 5 - 10 businesses in the historic core of the neighborhood.
We wanted to hear from the neighborhood about this light rail proposal, so Andy met up with CID Coalition organizers at flower flower (an artist studio in the CID on Jackson St) where the Coalition was making banners to prepare for a Sound Transit hearing.
