More construction in Uptown

Poor, poor Seattle. We look kind of pittiful right now with our sillty little monorail collided and stacked up in a sad hunch. Uptown also looks a little worse for wear with torn up pits of gravel and mud on nearly every corner. You can add the intersection of Denny and Queen Anne Ave to the list of construction projects in the area -- we returned from the turkey day holiday to find the Shell gas station lot being fenced off and dug up. Directly across the street, the mud pit that will become the Trio condo project deepens while just around the corner they're piling gravel high in the Olympic Sculpture Park construction zone. If you have a 3-year-old who digs Tonka trucks, Uptown is the hood for you right now.
