Dispatches from Ravenna, a neighborhood in Northeast Seattle
Body found at Ravenna Park this morning. Looks like a suicide. A few details about it on the Seattle Times website and the Seattle P-I’s.
Hope this doesn’t put people off the invasive weeding in the ravine on Saturday.
Thanks to reader Karl N. for the info.

Department store returning to the U Village, but it ain’t Lamonts.
Bloomie’s has a curated selection of brands such as Jimmy Choo and La Mer. The stores offer “interactive experiences” and cocktails. https://st.news/3isV3C4
Shopping by headlamp sounds rather romantic, though. https://twitter.com/ThirdPlaceBooks/status/1612503200044810241
My prediction is that 4 different progressive-ish urbanist-ish yimby-ish candidates and one nimby obstructionist candidate will run, and the progressive that is least palatable to the public will make it to the general election.
And lose to the nimby. https://twitter.com/jcohenwrites/status/1610446353506914305
From the inbox: D4 Councilmember Alex Pedersen just announced he won't seek reelection. That makes 3 of 7 sitting district council members who've announced they're not running (all the district seats are up for reelection this fall)
