There is another paid lot on the south end on 6th. There is limited parking in the same building. The lobby is spacious. Security is helpful. Monitors are available showing bus schedules. There is a Starbucks in the lobby. There are 2 banks of elevators. One bank to take to you the 16th floor and lower. The Second to take you to floors higher than 16th. When going to a floor higher than 40th, you'd need to transfer to a second set of elevators on the 40th. There are 3 eateries: a Vietnamese restaurant Core Bistro and 2 others outside the building: a Mexican restaurant Bebas And Amigos and a salad/sandwich store Chew Chews Eatery. You'd need to go upstairs from the lobby level. The Mexican restaurant and salad bar is outside the building. There are 2 other floors below the lobby. You'll see some great artwork here, a gift store and escalators to join up to the Columbia Tower. To get to Columbia tower, turn right at the bottom of the escalator to take a second set of escalators. At the bottom, go through the glass doors at the bottom of the escalator and turn left. If you turn right, it takes you through a tunnel. Follow this to another set of escalators to take you up to the Bank of America tower across the street. Pretty handy if you really want to stay warm! Amazon Locker is also located on the bottom level.

This review is for the jury duty facilities and process…read more Even though I'm sure most people don't want to be selected for jury duty, the facilities and process at the Municipal Court of Seattle make it a lot less painful. I was called to serve years ago in Boston and we had to wait in uncomfortable chairs in the basement. Additionally, we weren't allowed any electronics. In contrast, the Municipal Court of Seattle's facilities are new and have high ceilings and huge windows for natural light. There's also a quiet room with lounge chairs and desks with outlets for those wanting to do some work while waiting. They even have cell phone charging stations. There's also an outdoor terrace to get some fresh air. The staff takes you through the process clearly and acknowledges that you'll be waiting around for long periods of time but the facilities and attention to details make it a lot less painful.

As I got over to the right lane to make a right hand turn on a yellow light - car next to me went through the yellow light too only he went straight and I turned right. I got a ticket in the mail for running a red light so I go to review my dashcam, go through it and sure enough, I went through two yellow lights, even the ticket shows a yellow lights. BUT, after researching it further, evidently. there was a red light "arrow" over on the sidewalk for this specific lane. 1. I was looking up at the two lights above that were TURNING yellow at the time I made the right hand turn, always look to verify no one was coming from the left or across the way. 2. Why on earth would the light on the sidewalk be red BEFORE the other two lights above? 3. Why would all three lights not be in sync? 4. Why is there no signs alerting drivers to a THIRD light for the right hand lane is on the the SIDEWALK and that you have cameras on that specific lane....seems like a set up. I am 55 years old and have a flawless, and I mean flawless driving record, and I sincerely believe I was innocent as I made a legal right hand turn on a yellow light. It's beyond me, why there is a need to have a third light off to the side on the SIDEWALK that would be red BEFORE the other lights turn red (NOTE: THIS LIGHT is much lower that the other two lights) This was unfair to have to pay $124.00 for taking a right hand turn on a two yellow lights. AGAIN, two out of three lights were yellow. NO REASON FOR THE TURN LANE TO BE RED BEFORE THE OTHER LIGHTS TURNED RED. This was their response...."I agree, the lights for the straight ahead traffic were amber at the time you made your turn, however the light controlling your lane was red. Also, I reviewed many "3 light set-ups" like this in my town of Vancouver WA and they are ALL in sync, I can't find even one sidewalk light that is RED before the other two turn red. Many sidewalk lights or right lane lights are green while the other two are red but never red before the other two turn red. To me...this three light setup is DECEPTIVE and it going to get unsuspecting drivers every time. BUT, this is REVENUE for the City of Puyallup.

In addition to visiting her and the corresponding local adventures, my family had a boat for a few years that we stored in the driveway, but put in/took out of the water at Edmonds Marina. Restaurants near the marina and near Edmonds bowl/Downtown Edmonds were staples of my upbringing. The shops were also child-friendly growing up. My parents, grandma, sister, and I all liked the toy shop(s), kitchen shop(s), and a travel shaped called the Savvy Traveler. Salon 512 was where I got my haircut for several years (though when I was really young, my mom cut my bangs at home). I went to summer camps at the Anderson Center. As part of the summer camps we walked around Edmonds to different places, including walking to Yost Pool so we could go swimming. As a family, we went to Edmonds Driftwood Players Theater performances (stage) and routinely saw movies at Edmonds Theater (cinema). All of these experiences helped make Edmonds feel like an extension of home, we lived to the south in Shoreline. The City of Edmonds remains a place I continue explore with enjoyable experiences spanning a variety of business types. Traffic tends not to be too bad, as long as not during peak hours, and street parking is abundant though can fill up quickly.
