I think it’s cool that you can usually tell what neighborhood you’re in just by looking at the sidewalks. From the glitter-vision of downtown to the celebrated dance instructions on Capitol Hill to the microbiology primers on Eastlake, there’s quite an effort to make the sidewalks interesting in Seattle. This insert, found along North Yale between Thomas and John was unexpected. It’s across the street from R.E.I. and in front of a lot that’s being prepared for new construction.
Does anyone know the history? Did this building once reside on site?
