Plans
Is it directly on the road? Satellite imagery is inconclusive due to tree cover; Google's map thinks so, but Street View shows the marker up a steep hillside into parks department land.
Bike? Last Sunday I passed about a mile away on the Emerald City Ride, so I know it's both far and hilly.
Transit? A one-way loop through Arbor Heights is served by route 22 every... uh... 70ish minutes, as well as by a few commute-oriented express trips of route 21. Since it's only a 15 minute walk to the point, 70 minutes seems like a long time to spend. Route 22 connects to the Westwood Village shopping mall, a significant bus hub also served by the H Line, the newest RapidRide route.
Expedition
- On board an H Line bus, fastest among 3 simultaneous departures to Westwood Village, to connect with infrequent route 22. -- Coyotebush (talk) @47.6047,-122.3333 13:41, 9 May 2024 (PDT)
