The almost gone Viaduct



Now you see it, now you don't. The last remaining piece of the old elevated highway comes down this week. The project will eventually change the waterfront in a big way, opening up city views and (hopefully) improving traffic on a new, busy four-lane surface street.

In the meantime, it's the place to avoid, with intersections randomly closed for construction and the Coleman Ferry Dock under major renovation. Speaking of Seattle transportation, the new tunnel is free for a few more weeks. Enjoy, folks. After that, tolls will range from $1 - $2.25 during peak times.  Let's see. That's about $100 a month, if you commute through daily. The price of living in paradise.

Well, one more day of nice weather before a chilly, wet pattern sets in for the weekend. Full harvest moon tomorrow night if you're lucky enough to see it.
