News Notes


Civic
  • Mayor Bruce Harrell signed new legislation to allow local music venues to apply for designated parking spaces for performers to park, load + unload their equipment before and after events. The program will begin in 2025; new street signs will be posted in approved areas warning other motorists not to park there. (KING 5)
Traffic
  • The Seattle Department of Transportation broke ground on the new Georgetown to Downtown Safety Project which will expand the protected bike lane network. The new three-mile extension will elongate the already existing SODO trail on Fifth Avenue South, along with other drainage + signage upgrades.
Closed
  • The Ballard 8oz. Burger & Co. is closing after 10 years in business. However, the restaurant will still be offering delivery service while they find a new location. Want to keep up with local restaurant openings or closings? Read more on our website.
Community
  • In observance of LGBTQ+ history month, a new marker in Pioneer Square now commemorates the site of the first-ever Seattle Pride that took place 50 years ago. The signage includes information about the origin of Pride and other pieces of local LGBTQ+ history. (KING 5)
Sports
  • The Seattle Storm now tops the WNBA as the league’s most valuable team with a net worth of $151 million despite being in a smaller market. Previously, the Las Vegas Aces sat at the top with a net worth of $140 million. (Puget Sound Business Journal)
Listen
  • Can the Kraken keep up with their scoring surge? Hear from the local experts on the Seattle Kraken with Locked On’s daily, team-focused podcasts.
The Buy
  • Inflation may be cooling, but car insurance premiums aren’t. Why? All insurance is now priced in real-time — so repair times, parts shortages, and credit scores all play a part in the final price. Take Money’s questionnaire on your best car insurance experience to see if you can save.*
