between 5th Ave NE and Roosevelt Way NE. Actually, the first part is not so bad, especially since it is light in the evening now.
The south side of the street is clearly much easier to walk on – at least on the west end of the block.
This is my favorite property. The developer for this condo building installed this sign in the public right of way. Don’t worry about being towed. The sign is illegal.
This is my second favorite part. I need to double check, but I am pretty sure this is not a curb cut and it is also the public right of way. This is a recent addition.
Okay, nice way to end the walk. And, I only need to cross Roosevelt now (which gets tricky in winter but is easier again now that it is daylight in the evening) and I am pretty much home free.
Please know that you can contact Seattle Dept. of Transprtation and they will require property owners to remove “No Parking” written on public right of way. I did just that for a retirement center on 115th st who decided to own public space. It took them a few weeks to comply with the cities directive, but they did.
People who have lived on NE 125th between 5th and Roosevelt for the past decade are not all thrilled about the sidewalk plans. The sidewalk should be put on hold until every family on this street has had a chance to
review the plans. Are there online plans available?
This project should come up for serious review by all those affected.
“Anonymous Friday, April 03, 2009”:
There are not plans. Neighbors are still getting input from everyone so that the plan can be developed. And, sidewalks will only be on one side of the street.
Can you help us understand the specific concerns that are being discussed? What are your thoughts? (give as many details as possible so that we can address them)
