Letter to the Editor: Changes, traffic congestion

To the Editor:

I am all for moving forward for our expanding city, but I do have a major concern that I have not seen addressed regarding the plans to build our new pool, etc. etc. What is the plan for ‘parking’!? A new apartment building or two being built next door, again etc....banks, post office....traffic congestion already out of control. Go ahead with your plans, but get realistic as to how much stuff you can cram into a relatively small space. It breaks my heart to see the devastation along I-5 for the light rail installation (where’s the adequate parking?) a major portion of 5th Ave NE is already shut down as a through street to north of the canal traffic. I have lived in the same Shoreline home for 65 years, elderly but truly flexible. I guess you can hear my frustration for the continued building in my beloved city. , nuf said.
