Why Isn’t Ballard Getting Light Rail? Plus, is Melinda French Gates Going To Bring Back The Sonics?
Today on the podcast, Jane is joined by contributor and Urbanist contributing editor Ryan Packer to catch us up on the latest from Sound Transit’s controversial decision to defer The Ballard Link Extension, and also the appeals to Seattle’s Comprehensive Plan, and why they maybe shouldn’t have happened. They are also joined by comedian, cartoonist, and contributor Brett Hamil, who brings the cheers and jeers.
