The Seattle Monorail Project has released the Green Line Preferred Alternative Report today. This is important to us because our house is two blocks from the proposed line—close enough to be convenient, hopefully far enough away to be silent. The corner fruit & vegetable market, The Top Banana, looks like it will be saved and instead they’re planning on building the station where the brand new ugly Quiznos box curently sits (the box with diagonal lines on the map).

The vegetable stand is literally right out our back door, and now it look as though the Monorail station will be, too. As noted above, you can make out what appears to be our kitchen and garage on this map from page 27 of the report.
