- 4' sidewalks are nowhere close to adequate in width, and roosevelt is not the 'fastest growing urban heat island' yikes
- Seriously? They're literally opposing pedestrian improvements now? "Four foot wide sidewalks are fine along an arterial, actually." Fuck TAS. As a reminder, they receive tax-exempt donations via their partnership with @seattleparksfoundation.org . www.treeactionseattle.org/campaigns/fi...
- the best way to deal w/ urban heat island effect in urban villages is to de-pave streets and remove space for cars. TAS has never advocated for this position. they don't actually care about mitigating urban heat islands.Jan 11, 2026 20:13
