I miss it from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. I don’t miss it all now as I know better. Too many people, too much traffic and too many tents.

I love this city more the more it grows. And sidewalks, bus lanes, etc., don't care about traffic.

Except the tents of course, but I'm in Belltown where they've mostly been moved out.

Definitely love the density of the city. It's a rare experience in the US outside of the top tier cities to just get block after block of walking culture and walkability.

Yesterday it was a surprise to see the newest generation of homeless panhandlers, at the N 50th/5th Ave entrance to I5 south.

This guy had a sign:

Homeless
Anything will help
Send money to my Venmo: xxxxxx

I left off his Venmo username so no one here is tempted to send him money.
