Knute Berger of Crosscut likens Seattle Center as an old rec room badly in need of updating. There are wonderful venues at the Center to be sure – such as the new KEXP studios and coffee shop, McCaw Hall, the Glass Garden, the venerable Rep, etc. But there is a worn 1960’s look to the place. I remember my first trip to the top of the Space Needle in 1962, a real WOW! But what is the future? What is the city doing for a master plan, the sports arenas, the park, the fountains, the Science Center, the Center House, etc. How does it all fit together? What is the overall concept? Should it be a park, a neighborhood extension, a place for low income housing, or something else? And how do we get there? Transit? Parking?
