North City Station Arriving Soon; You Can Help A new city park with food trucks and artist galleries is coming soon to North City. Neighbors will clean up the future North City Station site on Saturday, March 21st, at a community work party. The city of Shoreline will turn derelict buildings near the Shoreline North Light Rail Station into a public park with food trucks and artist space. On Saturday, March 21st, neighbors are throwing a Community Cleanup Work Party to remove trash and help get the site ready for the public. Shoreline is working to expand the existing, small 0.3-acre Rotary Park at the corner of 10th Ave NE and NE 185th Street into a 4.75-acre park. Shoreline recently signed an agreement to use a little over three acres of Seattle City Light property as public park space. That agreement includes the old North City Mower shop building that is now vacant and boarded up. The property behind the little Rotary Park is owned by Seattle City Light and was once a convenience store and then the long-time location of the old North City Mower and Saw shop. The building is now closed and boarded up, and the site is full of trash. On March 21st, volunteers from the neighborhood will clean up the trash. Use this form to RSVP for the North City Station Spring Cleanup on Saturday, March 21st, from 9:30 a.m. to noon. There’s a lot of work to do.

Shoreline Neighborhood Greenways Network. Kids in all neighborhoods should be able to go for bike rides on safe streets near where they live. This proposal asks the city to use WSDOT’s Quick Build techniques to quickly and cheaply convert existing low-traffic streets into walkable Greenways.
Missed one. Danica Noble has also filed with the PDC
NOT Dickerson Falls, right? Or is it?
Building a Hedgerow at the restoration site. At the Hamlin Park urban forest restoration site, we are propagating native plants to build a hedgerow. A hedgerow is a dense row of woody debris, trees, shrubs, and other native plants. We build hedgerows to encourage park visitors to stay on the trail at the forest restoration site while also providing wildlife habitat. To build a hedgerow, we place a row of large woody debris into a line and then propagate native plants using hardwood twig live stakes. Being able to get outside and enjoy nature is a human right. And it is important that everyone has easy access to the outdoors near where they live. It’s great that we have so many park visitors to the restoration site, but we do ask everyone to please stay on the trails when they visit the site to help protect the baby plants. Here are some of the species of native plants we have propagated into the hedgerows at the Hamlin Park restoration site: * Blackcaps raspberries (Rubus occidentalis) * Thimbleberries (Rubus parviflorus) * Evergreen huckleberries (Vaccinium ovatum) * Oso berries (Oemleria cerasiformis) * Black cottonwoods (Populus trichocarpa) * Scouler's willows (Salix scouleriana) * Trailing blackberries (Rubus ursinus) * Nootka roses (Rosa nutkana) * Salmonberry (Rubus spectabilis) * Fireweed (Chamaenerion angustifolium) * Snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus) * Pacific Ninebark (Physocarpus capitatus) You can visit the site and look for these species next time you walk through, and you can find work parties to volunteer with your neighbors on the Green Shoreline Partnership website.

A screen shot from The Seattle Times says: Steves was in Phoenix on Nov. 10 when he checked a hometown news blog and felt his eye catch on a story about the center's impending closure. He recognized the building, where he remembered taking his car to get its emissions checked. Steves, who didn't know what a hygiene center was before last month, called his purchase "the most beautiful Christmas present (he) could have."

I’m curious about why “the Pacific Avenue Greenway Project will cost an estimated $9.1 million.” Is that primarily because of the new signals?
Thanks Rick! And also thanks to Angelica Relente (@a-rlnt.bsky.social), the Murrow News Fellow who first reported about the hygiene center. Angelica's reporting was supported by the non-profit @myedmondsnews.bsky.social and the state-funded #WSU journalism fellowships.
