A photo thread for pictures you took of where you live. No fair pulling images from the web!

Seattle (Fremont) this past August.

(Sadly, when i flew back in today from L.A., it quite did not look or feel like this. Hello seattle winter.)

Wow, Brian those are great! What's the building with the freaky silver metallic virus growing up it?

― Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 28 November 2003 23:14 (twenty-two years ago)

It's a new apartment building with retail stores at the bottom, mostly this coop market called PCC. I call it the Danny Elfman/Tim Burton building.. because it makes me think of Tim Burton films. I think you're the first person I've heard compliment it. haha :)

I don't live there anymore but there are lots of Dunedin Ilx'rs plus Ned's been there of course, so, here's the light going down on the Otago Peninsula/Dunedin harbour, taken from the "psychiatric triangle" City Rise area:

Where I now live is re-named "Middle Earth" this week. Really.
There's a countdown to the LOTR premiere on this site where you can watch it via webcam; yesterday I saw the huge big cave troll up on the city council building by the library.

The site I gleaned this from is blowing my mind. It's a site full of armchair urban planners with a thread where these guys are obsessing over every new development in my town of 100,000.

― The Reverend, Friday, 22 February 2008 01:40 (eighteen years ago)

New: construction crews have begun tearing down the old Everett Elks building and neighboring businesses and the parking garage to build the new Library Plaza (or whatever it's called). They're making great progress on demolition. I can't wait!

But...........I would like to see future towers rise higher. Nine-stories just doesn't seem that BIG of a deal for massively growing Everett.

― W4LTER, Friday, 22 February 2008 01:47 (eighteen years ago)

Actually it's supposed to be Lynnwood is to Bellevue as Everett is to.....well....maybe Downtown Tacoma? Lynnwood's new city center plan focuses on being a "laid back" Bellevue, without the "bigness". Everett is focusing more on a high-class residential community with buildings only rising 200 feet at the max. I would actually like to see taller buildings everywhere, so when light rail actually arrives into Snohomish County, thousands (or millions) will pile onto the trains to commute and make light rail successful in Snohomish County.
