Great Article About SLU

Photo caption

> You'd think the Times could take a decent picture of the neighborhood they're located in. Uh, you missed the point of the photo. It was SLU juxtapositioned against the looming downtown, to make you see the difference in scale but also show SLU as a developing neighborhood aspiring to taller heights. Their caption on the photo indicates that the composition was intentional: "The South Lake Union neighborhood is in the foreground; downtown Seattle skyscrapers loom in the background." |

Thanks for the comment Patrick, maybe I did miss the point. I didn't notice the caption before you pointed it out, or maybe it was added after I saw the article. Sounds like the Times was purposefully misleading readers by giving a visual of much taller buildings than would be allowed under any proposal. Actually that fits with the contrived "David and Goliath" storyline of the article which fails to mention the significant LUOA victories (the UDF itself, the EIS revisions, and street activation requirements at UW SLU Phase III).
