For as long as I've lived in Seattle (all my adult years), this city's image has been changing dramatically from decade to decade. When I first arrived here, it was a little-known destination, North of San Francisco and maybe next-door to Nome, Alaska. Fashion trendsetters said mean things like "What time is it in Seattle when it's noon in New York?" The cringe-worthy answer: "1938."
In the post-War boom years, Seattle was seen as an aspiring blue-collar town, known for its bustling waterfront, its maritime industries and its booming aircraft industry. Those were the years before downtown expansion, times when the Smith Tower still topped the skyline and city boosters wanted to be as freeway-ridden Los Angeles and as hipster "cool" as San Francisco.
The organizers of the effort to preserve, save and move the "Stone Cottage" on Harbor Ave SW shared this press release on the project covering what has taken place and next steps.
The Stone Cottage will be saved! Over 360 donors have contributed more than $66,000 which is enough to save and move to Stone Cottage from its current site and into secure storage a mile south of its 1123 Harbor Ave SW location. The “First Mile” of its journey will occur in the middle of the night once city permits are issued, most likely on a weekend in April.
Meaghan Haas has a vision. After a long time in the events industry, working for One Reel among others, she felt a a yearning to create a space in her Highland Park neighborhood that could become a gathering place and a hub for local activities.
Update
The Seattle Police SW Precinct said, "This was a possible shooting called during 2nd watch hours that was later reclassified as a crisis SPD incident #21-68092."
Original Post
More than seven Seattle Police cruisers arrived near the 7500 block of 35th SW on Saturday around 1:25 pm and emerged with rifles out. They were not divulging the nature of the response but an ambulance pulled up and an officer on the scene said everything was under control. No duty officer was available at the SW Precinct so the exact nature of the incident was not immediately available. They were seen speaking to several people as they took notes on what took place.
Dumplings of Fury the asian fusion restaurant that opened in a tiny space at 4302 SW Oregon Street in 2016 has not only survived the pandemic, (their 400 square foot space pretty much dictated it was a primarily to go location in any case) they have thrived. Enough so that they are expanding into a much larger space, formerly occupied by Many Moons Trading Company at 4461 California Ave SW.
Owner Ben Jenkins said they are looking at a late spring, early summer grand re-opening. Last May Dumplings of Fury opened a second location, in of all places Hilliard, Ohio (a suburb of Columbus). That space has a lot more room and a larger menu too, something the upgraded West Seattle location will share.
Jenkins said, "We're adding around 30 seats inside and 12 more outside. And yes the menu will be larger like our other location because we will have the cook line and space to pull it off now."

I’ve been thinking about colors lately. Specifically about my favorite color. When you are a kid, and you are making up your mind about the world, you sometimes ask others what their favorite is as a way to size them up.
In the fourth grade my Mom bought me a beautiful Kelly Green short sleeved, button down shirt. I remember it vividly and I recall thinking, “This is my favorite color” as I gazed at it. I wore it a lot. But in the moment I declared it as my favorite I immediately felt kind of guilty. I still liked blue. Specifically a kind of cobalt blue.
And to be honest I was very partial to a shade of red, a kind of melon color that they had used to do the walls and carpets inside the original Cinerama theater in downtown Seattle.
Why do we have favorite colors? Do they have meanings or effects on us?
