Day After Christmas Blowout
Seattle’s Little Saigon neighborhood is bustling with action! The black market of stolen goods is thriving at 12th Ave & Jackson St. I was hunting for Legos and Pokemon cards. Didn’t find any.
Instead, dude offered me an Apple Watch and Air Pods. Another fellas was pressuring me to buy an Ermengildo Zegna tie that looked brand new. The boys are upgrading to high end lux. Don’t worry, you can still find plenty of paper towels and Tide pods for pennies on the dollar. Asian grandmas love this stuff. By the way, those tax payer funded signs discouraging people not to buy stolen items ain’t working. Also, fentanyl is so cheap out here. 50 cents per pill. CM Tammy Morales’ (@CMTammyMorales) district is falling apart. Nothing has changed in “Tammy Town.” Will the city actually focus on improving this Asian American neighborhood in 2024?
Remember This?
In April, Markham McIntyre w/the Seattle Office of Economic Development spoke at a press conference and said city crews would focus more on improving Little Saigon/Chinatown-ID. It looks the same. What happened?
Back in April
The King County Metro bus shelter was still at 12th Ave & Jackson St. It’s now been removed. Also, there were no warning signs telling people not buy stolen merch. Otherwise, nothing has changed. It looks exactly the same.
