I think we're having a good month for Downtown Seattle starts:
1. The 21-story 5th & Madison condo project announced they're starting this week.
2. The 10-story Mosler Lofts project put its fence up Friday.
3. The 13-story low-income housing project at 2nd & Yesler has demolished and is currently one level below the street shoveling demo'd material around.
4. The 20-story Four Seasons Hotel and Residences started early in the month. The slow demo of the existing garage along the cliffside has finally reached "visible" stage.
5. The City's new Fire Station 10 and Emergency Command Center have their fence up and will hold their ceremonial groundbreaking next week. The density of this project is too low, but we finally get rid of the only full-block parking lot in that district.
