Friday Odds and Ends
Landes Condo Tango:
I noticed the Landes disappeared from the Williams-Marketing website but knew the project was moving forward. So, I contacted the developer to get the scoop. Presently, the developer is undecided whether to market the project as apartments or condos, though they are constructing units with condo-grade finishes. A decision is expected to be made by Summer. Interesting….
The Bellevue Tour:
Loyal readers will have noticed that we skipped across Lake Washington. Bellevue has several interesting and unique projects on the way, many far more ambitious than their Seattle counterparts. In the upcoming weeks we will continue our tour of Bellevue with European Tower, The Residences at Bravern and Belle Arts.
Recycle for Shelter Pets:
Though the Seattle Animal Shelter is a city-run facility, the funds for necessary veterinarian care for homeless and uncared for pets brought to the shelter are provided through Help The Animal Fund (HTAF). Supported by donations, HTAF holds fundraising events throughout the year from bake sales to the Furry 5K Run at Seward Park.
A unique opportunity has become available through the Cash for Critters program. Cash for Critters takes in empty ink jet & laser cartridges and digital phones, and in turn, provides cash for non-profit animal organizations. The good folks at Metro Dog will be facilitating the program on behalf of the Seattle Animal Shelter. Please see the Cash for Critters website for acceptable cartridges and drop them off at Metro Dog.
