Mt. Baker Station

In what may be their best Seattle project yet, Art Space unveiled their latest plans tonight:

Artspace Mt. Baker Station Lofts, Artspace’s third project in Seattle, will be a mixed-use arts facility containing 57 rental units of affordable live/work space for artists and their families. Located adjacent to the Mt. Baker Light Rail Station, this $18 million project will be a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) consisting of three levels of live/work space. The ground floor will include a community room and 12 commercial spaces for non-profits, creative enterprises and related businesses. 

Complete with rooftop gardens with honeybees, the latest green design and quick access to downtown or SeaTac Airport, these spaces, commercial AND residential, are likely to be snapped up quickly. Kudos to Cathryn Vandenbrink for her ongoing vision and commitment to the Seattle cultural scene.

Robert Bringhurst The Ridge (Interview) Pt. 1

Robert Bringhurst The Ridge (Interview) Pt. 1

The Ridge is a poem in 20 parts, a meditation on a geological feature of Quadra Island, a large island in British Columbia, just north of the Strait of Georgia, and thus the Salish Sea. But the poem is also a meditation on what’s happening on the island and on the planet we share in what’s been described as devastating imagery. I would add that it’s a meditation on the human species as well, at this time in the early Anthropocene.
Robert Bringhurst is the author. Trained initially in the sciences at MIT, he makes his life in the humanities from his home on Quadra Island, where he’s worked in poetry, Native American linguistics and typography. An officer of the Order of Canada, former Guggenheim Fellow and winner of the Lieutenant Governor’s Award for Literary Excellence. He’s our guest today to talk about The Ridge. Robert, thanks for your time and hospitality.
