New intersection daylighting at Pike and Belmont via a bike/scooter parking corral! This removes 0 legal car parking spaces, increases pedestrian safety by improving visibility of the crosswalk, and improves accessibility by encouraging scooter parking in the street. Thanks @seattledot.bsky.social!

🗣️ SHE DOESN'T EVEN GO HERE

‼️Pike Place Pedestrianization Action Alert‼️ the PDA is conducting (another) visitor survey to better understand how locals travel to the Market and how those trends have been affected by the ongoing street pilot. tell 'em! www.pikeplacemarket.org/pike-place-m...

wow this man is like. an actual paragon of virtue huh

Letting business/property owners override the Vision Zero safety team based on vibes is par for the course at SDOT and needs to change. Making intersections safer by improving visibility is a proven strategy. Of the proposed locations with pedestrian collisions, 0 remain in the plan.

Fellow public restroom folks: have we seen this reporting from Seattle Gay News? Go George Freeman Go!!! www.sgn.org/story/165745

On its third attempt tonight, Marblehead Town Meeting approved an “MBTA Communities–compliant” district largely centered on the 125-year-old Tedesco Country Club, meeting 3A requirements on paper while all but assuring no new housing would be built. This comment says it all.

Go fuck yourself, Jack.

Seattle friends: help reclaim this plaza for people! Tomorrow, Sunday, May 3, 11am-? Come down to Occidental at Jackson St (by Caffe Umbria) with a chair, food, drinks, games, whatever and enjoy the pedestrian plaza as a place for people to enjoy car-free. Please repost!

Pike Place Market preservationists spent a decade pushing back on the Center City Connector by saying that First Avenue could just as easily be served by buses. Anyone know where I can find their advocacy to put buses on First Avenue now that the Center City Connector is dead?

I cannot overstate how much I love being car free.

There is a pattern here, and it's not on Katie Wilson's end.

these + many other strange and beautiful bikes are featured in this sweet little secondhand book—for sale at Lamplight! Come on down!! 🚲📚

happy bike month everybody!

this is probably extremely common knowledge at this point, but i still go out of my way to mention lars von trier hiring a penis double for willem dafoe's nude scenes in antichrist because dafoe's hog was "so large that everyone in the room was confused"

Great turnout for Bring Your Own Chair at Pike Place today 🪑 Thanks to everyone who showed up, grabbed lunch, and helped demonstrate what a more people-first Pike Place can look like. More space for people. More reasons to stay. Let’s keep it going.

the results are in, folks!! limiting traffic on pike place made the market better by every conceivable metric. 😃😊

this little criminal thinks he can just buddy up to me after spilling an entire cup of coffee on one of our armchairs this morning well!! he’s right, he can do that, we’re still buddies

i did it and i can’t wait to do it again :)

SUCK IT, HATERS. The Pike Place pedestrian pilot is a success. pikeplacemarket.community.highbond.com/document/65a...

attn: fellow bollard perverts the pike place PDA council is hearing a presentation/update on the street management program at 4pm tomorrow and there will be public comment periods before and after

posting this as a personal accountability measure: i've made up my mind to commute to work on my bike for the first time this week. supposed to be real sunny on friday. 👀🌞🚲

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

on the edge of my damn seat over here

🎶 🎼 Let's call the mayor, let's complain Looks like the city's done it to us again Tied up in traffic, what do you know The damn city bus, it moves so slow 🎵🎶 🚌💨 NOT FOR LONG! 🚎‼️

Today's DOOM LOOP for @soseaemerald.bsky.social: "Hot Urbanist Spring" See the whole thing here: southseattleemerald.org/voices/2026/...

Pike Place Market just released new sales data for Feb 2026. Looks like Jan+Feb 2026 had 11% higher sales than Jan+Feb 2025 (before the pedestrian pilot)! Congrats Seattle, you managed to find a way to shop at the market in the dead of winter without driving your cars through the middle of it.

It's true. It's not the hills or the rain or the cold or the exercise, or even the time it takes. Without the constant threat of injury or death from cars, I would bike everywhere all the time.

i have worked in this goddamn market for 13 years and every time conan comes through i'm the last to hear about it

I am extremely disappointed in Birds Connect Seattle. Preventing ecosystem-destroying sprawl by letting people move to our cities instead of exurbs is the best thing we can do for our vulnerable bird populations.

same

It's annoying to see the hand-wringing over a small number of wealthy people making empty threats to move because of tax increases, when there are actually people leaving desirable places en masse because they can't find affordable places to live

all right which one of you urbanist freaks is gonna come buy this

*FAAAAAAARRRRRRRT NOISE*

they installed new benches at the 15th and leary bus stop while i was away 😭👏🏻🙏

it’s good to be back 🙏❤️

i think the first thing i'd do with power is go mad

How can @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social hit the ground running to deliver on her transportation platform? We offer some ideas about her 🏥 Safety and Vision Zero 🧑‍🦽Sidewalks and accessibility 🚴🏾‍♀️ Bike routes 🪑 Places for people 🌎 Climate and 🏘️ 15-Minute City, priorities in @theurbanist.org today 👀

A longtime Seattleite was recently telling me that you used to be able to grab day-of rush tickets to theater shows and concerts at the information booth at Pike Place, in the 90s. We should bring that back.

🥳

The mayor-elect of Seattle fucking Washington standing in a picket line for Starbucks workers hours after her victory speech. This rules so hard

when we were rallying support for our letter last spring, the most common comment we heard from market workers and residents by a wide margin was “it’s not safe like this.” i find it offensive when FotM and MHC dismiss these completely valid concerns out of hand.

This did in fact age well.

oh holy shit i didn’t realize these things are mutually exclusive, that’s crazy

despite literally posting a screenshot of my ballot return confirmation, i have compulsively checked the king county tracker at least half a dozen times just to be extra, extra sure

Eight months ago, Katie Wilson declared her intention to run and all the conventional powers-that-be said she didn't stand a chance of winning. Remember that we don't always know what is possible.
