I am e-mailing to ask the Port of Seattle to work with the West Seattle community and Sound Legacy Partners to realize the potential of the CEM site and to allow the Water Taxi to move to the Jack Block Park site. This is a toxic brownfield site which has sat in our midst for over 30 years and it needs to be cleaned up now. Moving the Water Taxi nearby will allow for much needed parking and metro transit connections.

As a 40-year-plus West Seattle resident and also a local Realtor, I believe it is important to provide additional transportation options to help alleviate congestion on the West Seattle Bridge. It will be especially needed when the viaduct is being replaced.
