  1. I mean, to be extra extra clear, their ads _specifically called out_ the lack of racial covenants in University Park _explicitly and by name_, doing so as a _selling point_, touting their having racial covenants as a feature making them a better place to live than University Park.

    Which is another way of saying:

    These fuckers have _always_ been like this. _Always._

  6. FUN #LAURELHURST HISTORICAL FACT!

    I'm from University Park in Seattle's U. District. Laurelhurst is east of us; we both had seats on the old Northeast District Council, etc.

    My area specifically was platted earlier than most, in 1896, as Ravenna Springs, part of Ravenna Township, a failed resort town. University Park per se wasn't platted until 1905.

    While digging into this history, I found that 1) Ravenna Township wasn't organised enough to have deed covenants, 2) University Park was more organised but chose not to, and 3:

    Laurelhurst _did_, and its organising group when it was platted ran ads _using that against University Park_, specifically saying _they_ were the most exclusive neighbourhood in the area.

  10. Drove by the #Laurelhurst Theater last night in the pouring #rain and it looked so inviting that I just had to take a picture. We were actually on our way back from the Super Mario Bros movie at the Baghdad, which is certainly the other photo-worthy movie house in town.
