Shoreline is not the only area of Puget Sound undergoing rapid change and development.
Many readers will remember Patty's Eggnest restaurant at the corner of NE Northgate Way and Roosevelt Way NE
A Jiffy Lube was next door.
The property was sold some time ago and construction has been underway for an apartment complex. Eventually there will be 184 units, shops, and 88 parking spaces.

88 parking spaces for 184 units and shops is just not nearly enough. I’ve seen this time and time again where city planners squeeze out the locals parking which spills over to residential and other shops being forced out of spots available to park. One can argue people walk, bike and bus/light rail but after all that is said and done the parking will be a huge cluster muck!
All about population density; more people, more money (taxation). Council priority
It's great to see housing replace poorly utilized land near a light rail station. These photos show it well, thanks for sharing!
The parking advocates won't stop until the world is paved over.
