| 2 | Mar 2, 2010 6:14 PM | Wedgwood needs a mixed use denser areas with apartments, and businesses on the first floor, close to transit service. |
| 3 | Mar 3, 2010 4:30 PM | Too many churches: Land and buildings un-useable during the week |
| 4 | Mar 3, 2010 5:46 PM | infrequent turn over of business desired/very inportant |
| 5 | Mar 3, 2010 5:54 PM | street parking is available and no meters |
| 6 | Mar 3, 2010 6:58 PM | I don't do much business in Wedgwood neighborhood. |
| 7 | Mar 3, 2010 8:08 PM | Block parties, walking, gardening seem to be the primary neighborhood social activities |
| 8 | Mar 3, 2010 9:40 PM | Preserve a spot for the fruit stand, possibly even a Farmers' Market |
| 9 | Mar 3, 2010 10:44 PM | Empty buildings are a safety concern/gangs/graffiti. |
| 10 | Mar 4, 2010 2:04 AM | no need or want for mega-stores in Wedgwood |
| 11 | Mar 4, 2010 2:06 AM | We need to consider Lake City Way NE |
| 12 | Mar 4, 2010 2:28 AM | keep the streetscape "shallow", viz. no more than, say, 3 stories. |
| 13 | Mar 4, 2010 6:16 PM | there are many businesses in our area that are of no use to our household |
| 14 | Mar 4, 2010 8:22 PM | The non-chain businesses have a "neighborhood feel" that I like and highly value. |
| 15 | Mar 4, 2010 11:45 PM | I'd like to do more of my errands in Wedgwood (Hardware store for example). |
| 16 | Mar 5, 2010 7:51 PM | Businesses are primarily dull right now. Needs to be a little more like Fremont. All we have is coffee and hair salons. |
| 17 | Mar 5, 2010 10:30 PM | more diversity of businesses; art galleys; more restaurants |
| 18 | Mar 6, 2010 3:05 AM | need for at least one up-scale restaurant |
| 19 | Mar 6, 2010 3:57 AM | You still have to drive everywhere as their isn't a core business neigborhood. |
| 20 | Mar 6, 2010 4:23 AM | locally owned and operated businesses increase local job sources and build community among patrons. |
| 21 | Mar 6, 2010 5:00 AM | Needs to "feel' like business District; ala West Seattle |
| 22 | Mar 6, 2010 5:26 PM | I like getting to know and trust the business people i the neighborhood |
| 23 | Mar 8, 2010 5:29 AM | no more nail salons or tanning shops |
| 24 | Mar 9, 2010 3:37 PM | I would like a credit union in Wedgwood rather than so many of the large national banks. |
| 25 | Mar 9, 2010 6:26 PM | parking is an issue in some cases making it difficult for local residents |
| 26 | Mar 9, 2010 6:50 PM | must keep out ugly chains ie;McDonalds,etc |
| 27 | Mar 10, 2010 3:32 AM | bigger businesses are needed.. |
| 28 | Mar 10, 2010 4:25 AM | need more choices, few more good restaurants, a gym |
| 29 | Mar 10, 2010 5:22 AM | More outdoor cafes, etc. Provide seating at QFC for those who buy coffee and pastries. |
| 30 | Mar 11, 2010 2:26 AM | need comprehensive plan to better support our local businesses. |
| 31 | Mar 13, 2010 8:06 PM | Fantastic walkability; great restaurants and stores right here |
| 32 | Mar 13, 2010 10:00 PM | Not wild about a bunch of pubs - quaint name for a bar! |
| 33 | Mar 15, 2010 1:23 AM | Wish there were greater variety of restaurants. (I'm vegetarian; no local options.) |
| 34 | Mar 15, 2010 8:06 PM | We benefit from public institutions within walking distance, too: the Post Office and the NE Library. |
| 35 | Mar 17, 2010 5:45 PM | QFC is not my preferred grocery store, unfortunately. |
| 36 | Mar 21, 2010 4:22 AM | encourage local business(farmer) in wedgwood district |
| 37 | Mar 21, 2010 5:38 AM | we seldom go there, so we do not know |
| 38 | Mar 22, 2010 1:36 AM | Affordable restaurants |
| 39 | Mar 24, 2010 4:30 PM | Locallly owned as much as possible |
| 40 | Mar 24, 2010 7:50 PM | I will address here, but the extraneous noise of businesses (i.e.: music piped outside at Starbucks which can be heard for several blocks) is of concern to me. |
| 41 | Mar 26, 2010 8:42 PM | Destination businesses (ie, restaurants) draw people into the neighborhood. |
| 42 | Mar 27, 2010 3:53 PM | If we can shop in our neighborhood, why are people still in their cars if they could walk? |
| 43 | Mar 28, 2010 9:43 AM | We need more places to eat. Too few, and frankly too low in quality. No fast food or garbage either. Subway is bad enough. |
| 44 | Mar 30, 2010 2:53 AM | nurturing local businesses good for resilience |
| 45 | Mar 30, 2010 4:48 AM | The level walking street is a marvelous part of it (rare in Seattle) |
| 46 | Mar 30, 2010 11:58 AM | I like the mix of big and small businesses we have now |
| 47 | Mar 30, 2010 6:31 PM | Locally produced locally produced by small businesses |
| 48 | Mar 30, 2010 7:23 PM | there are not enough local businesses. |
| 49 | Mar 30, 2010 11:39 PM | the independent business is no different than a chain. They are all out to make money. Period. Starbux is ok but not macdonalds? gimme a break. |
| 50 | Mar 31, 2010 6:00 PM | Get rid of QFC--they don't belong here. A small independent would be much better. |
| 51 | Apr 1, 2010 7:57 PM | Reduce truck noise and idling. Reduce exhaust at QFC |
| 52 | Apr 1, 2010 8:10 PM | variety of services is important!! |
| 53 | Apr 4, 2010 5:26 AM | I'd like to see more family friendly places for dining, etc. And some new cuisine choices. Mexican would be awesome! |
| 54 | Apr 5, 2010 5:19 PM | We need some more little shops like Fresh, or 60th street desserts, a the two has no real draw I'm sorry to say . It's sad that the project at the Jewish center is just sitting there is a enpty tag build build better than what the builders wanted to do? I dont think so! That building sure dosent' help the feel or look of a Vision it just makes us look getto and it hurst schools tryign to recrut students and others retailers looking for space. |
| 55 | Apr 8, 2010 3:31 AM | We should not discourage business like Starbucks, if it means being able to walk and stay in our neighborhood. |
| 56 | Apr 8, 2010 5:33 PM | Being able to walk or bike for local shopping is a major strong point here. |
| 57 | Apr 8, 2010 7:35 PM | independent business give variety, individuallity to area |
| 58 | Apr 10, 2010 5:33 PM | Businesses are mostly front-facing (not anonymous industrial biz) |
| 59 | Apr 12, 2010 7:46 PM | I would like more choices in restaurants |
| 60 | Apr 14, 2010 2:22 AM | Several grocery stores are close by. |
| 61 | May 6, 2010 4:49 AM | keep trees, especially west side |
