We are waking up this morning to warm and hazy skies across Seattle. Our high today should touch around eighty-four degrees, but that beautiful sun will be filtered through wildfire smoke again. The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency lets us know air quality is sitting at moderate, so if you have breathing concerns, take it easy outside. The National Weather Service expects these hazy, dry conditions—and the smoky sunsets and that red moon we saw last night—to carry right through the weekend.
At City Hall, Mayor Bruce Harrell is making headlines today with a new budget proposal that aims to tackle Seattle’s rising food insecurity. He’s proposing almost twelve million dollars in added investments for food access. This means three million more for local food banks like FamilyWorks, expanded funds for mobile food pantries and home deliveries for those who can’t get out, plus extra financial support for grocery stores across town facing retail theft and property damage. There’s an additional million dollars set aside to provide hot meals year-round to youth, seniors, and our unhoused neighbors. The mayor will also push for legislation in Olympia to exempt groceries and pharmacies from state business taxes to keep these crucial retailers open.
Down at the waterfront, after over fifteen years and more than eight hundred million dollars, we are officially set to celebrate the grand reopening of Seattle’s central waterfront. Twenty acres are now revitalized from Railroad Way South near the stadiums all the way up to Pier 62 and the Aquarium. Expect festivities along the water this weekend and check out the new public spaces for a fresh view of the Sound.
Turning to real estate, Seattle’s market continues to stay busy. Analysts estimate about a hundred and eighty homes listed this week, with prices for median single-family houses hovering near nine hundred thousand dollars. On the job front, tech and health care remain strong with several local startups announcing plans to hire, and we’ve seen about one hundred new postings posted since Monday.
For our music and arts lovers, the Capitol Hill Block Party is back this weekend, drawing local acts and headliners to Pike and Pine. Fremont’s Sunday Market returns with live music and fresh local produce, and the Pacific Science Center is launching a space exhibit that promises hands-on fun for families.
Our schools are making us proud. Roosevelt High took home a win in volleyball last night, and Garfield’s STEM team is being recognized for a robotics breakthrough. Congratulations to all our students and their hardworking coaches.
In community news, the Beacon Hill neighbors came together yesterday, planting four hundred drought-tolerant trees in the new Rainier Valley greenbelt. Volunteers say this effort will help cool our streets and clean the air during smoky days just like these.
On the public safety front, Seattle Police are investigating a burglary overnight near Queen Anne Avenue. Arrests were made quickly, and officers credit nearby witnesses for their fast calls. No injuries were reported, but as always, keep an eye out for your neighbors.
