After a recent shooting of two men in downtown Seattle, it's time to change the appearance that our iconic city is beginning to develop.

3rd Ave. between Pike St. & Pine St. is a melting pot of illegal and dangerous activity. It feels as though the police have abandoned that block and there is no hope in getting it back. As 3rd and Pike/Pine is one of the larger metro hubs in Downtown Seattle, it is crucial that something change for the visitors and residents of our city.

As a recent Q13 Fox article states - "There have been many shootings, stabbings and fights at 3rd and Pine and those who live, work and play here have had enough."

As drug deals/use occur, assaults are taking place in broad daylight and now a shooting has happened toward the end of rush hour - what will be next? When do we take charge and take a stand? When will the city do their part?
