…anxiously awaits the long-threatened but still nonexistent Snowstorm ’08, here’s what else has been going on:
- That plan to restore the boarded-up, aluminum-clad windows at the King County Courthouse? Not gonna happen.
- That plan to channel state money for a Husky Stadium remodel? Not dead yet.
- Seattle’s finally getting a new strip club; sure enough, it’s situated right alongside the unofficially-named South Lake Union Trolley.
- The many human services groups based at First United Methodist Church are packin’ up and movin’ out. The last church service at the classic sanctuary: Easter, 3/23. That building’s being saved for commercial use, but the ’50s-era annex building’s going away.
- There’s good news for music lovers: Capitol Music, the city’s top vendor of orchestral instruments and sheet music for more than 90 years, has reopened in Roosevelt, a year after development consumed its last downtown location.
- Caucus or primary? Wash. state’s got both.
