Biggest positive takeaways from the line 2 opening:

  • The Master planned development near stations (Overlake and Spring District) is genuinely good.
  • The Spring District shallow station is awesome

Biggest negative takeaways:

  • the at grade stuff -- intersections and pedestrian access -- is extremely bad
  • Blows my mind how much parking is surrounding the stations.
  • Using highway adjacent right-of-ways is a disaster for the lines usefulness

@owen I was a little surprised it doesn’t go slightly further to Redmond (by which I mean “downtown”)

@fbaum it will go to Redmond downtown. I don't know enough of the details to understand why that part is opening later.

@owen @fbaum I heard basically during the pandemic inspectors stopped inspecting things, the contractor cut corners, and all the concrete had to be redone.
