Chihuahua or mix out on the Interurban trail. Dark brown/black. No collar. I had my dog with me and he barked at us when we approached. Saw him at about 148th headed south. Hope he finds his people!

I'm wondering about the shrill alarm sound going off now near 160th and Dayton-ish and I read that this might be construction related, so I got my hopes up about construction resuming over there! Anyone know if it's back on track or what the plan is there?

Driving around Shoreline & saw this outside a home that’s been a front-yard disaster for months now — looks to have been drilled into their post overnight by someone. Anyone know what’s going on?

The Shoreline PTA Council asked candidates for state legislature about school funding.

No incumbents bothered to reply. But eight of the challengers answered and the PTA published the questionnaires online for voters.

https://www.shorelinepta.org/legislative-advocacy.html

In Shoreline’s 32nd district, incumbents Senator Jesse Salomon and Representative Lauren Davis didn’t bother to respond.

And in Lake Forest Park’s 1st LD, incumbent Representatives Shelley Kloba and Davina Duerr also didn’t bother.

Eight of the candidates who are vying for an open seat or challenging an incumbent responded: Jenne Alderks, Cindy Ryu, Chris Bloomquist, Danica Noble, Keith Scully, Lisa Rizak, Will Chen, and Imraan Siddiqi.

You can read the complete answers from the candidates who are good at responding to emails on the PTA website:

Is this a real restaurant? Found this on a couple of poles near Shoreline South Station, this is what's suspicious:

• No restaurant name or address
• No actual Facebook link and the name is super vague
• Phone number doesn't match any businesses
• Photos are bad AI
• Breakfast and pasta??
• Big ol sketchy QR in the middle

Hey all, I messed up pretty bad, I signed a lease to an apartment/condominium and was scheduled to move in July 31st, 2026. I recently been having financial issues and personal issues where I can no longer move out of my current apartment.

I am financially responsible for this apartment until a new tenant signs the lease, and I can’t afford to pay for TWO rents.

Private message for details and pics.

By we I mean the shopping center owner/management company/private equity/foreign investor/city hall person who can make phone calls…lol. This pothole has been here since last year and seems like nobody cares to fix it.

We had so much fun at our last event and I hope we can have a full house again!! Join me and more on Wednesday 8/12 for a one of a kind art project (taking requests, but I'm feeling like messing around with liquid watercolor) fun games, laughter and an overall easy hang in a cool new spot in Mountlake Terrace. And! I even have a website now so no sketchy Venmo transactions! Let me know if you want to pay with cash for a straight $40. I hope you join!!

Time to vote.

This year’s election is a big deal.

Here in Shoreline, in the 32nd district, we have an unusually competitive race with eleven candidates vying for state legislature.

And there’s a ton of money being spent.

Statewide, there’s tens of millions of dollars getting pumped into the election.

Combined, the 32nd legislative district candidates have already raised $904,699.47 (so far).

I volunteered with The Urbanist election endorsement committee.

The voters’ guide is over 23,000 words long and includes links to over 100 candidate questionnaires. We interviewed 86 candidates and published detailed write-ups for 44 endorsements.

You might not like the endorsements we made or our reasons for backing some candidates.

But I hope you find our voters’ guide thorough and thoughtful.

Would be AWFUL if something happened to this.

In 2025, the Washington Legislature passed a law that prevents rent gouging, but some landlords and property management companies are still up to their old tricks. They are using "junk fees" as a loophole around rent caps. We are hearing from tenants that they are increasingly being charged excessive fees for services that they don’t want or need, or for basic things like paying the rent. We at the Housing Alliance, call these “junk fees” and they are unfair, expensive, and deceptive. We’d like to hear your experiences. All information shared with us will be kept safe and confidential. 

Please fill out our survey if you or someone you know has received junk fees and we will be in touch within 48 hours. Thank you! ~ Po

Sorry if this has been asked and answered already but does anyone know what’s coming in by the Town & Country? Lots of construction in that parking lot.

We've been searching for a barber because my husband is learning English but is more comfortable talking about his hair in Spanish.

He also loves a good pedicure, so if anyone knows of a place, please share!

Anything North of the Ship Canal would be fantastic. Thank you for reading and for any advice or suggestions!

Looking for another housemate. My housemate and I are Gen X women. We both work at Children’s hospital. We have a full time cat and some shared custody dogs. The house is cute, lots of natural light, nice big fenced backyard. We are a short 10-15 min walk to two light rail stations and there is a bus line on our street. There is a theatre, two cafes, a pub, an indie bookstore, and a library within a few blocks. My housemate and I are both very creative and make a lot of cool stuff. We are liberal and LGBTQ friendly.

The house is furnished. Currently the room is unfurnished but we can provide some basics like bed and dresser if needed.

Because of current pets, unfortunately we aren’t able to consider anyone with pets.

Move in date is flexible but preferably somewhere between August 1st and 10th.

My future apartment will have appliances so I need to get rid of my washer (doesn't come with a dryer). It's only a year old, would I be able to sell it easily? Or should I donate? I don't have a truck for transport though. Thanks for any ideas

Hello everyone,

I (35F) am beginning to plan my move to the Seattle area (projected timeline for relocation: Feb 2027, but flexible depending on housing and job). It will be me, my daughter (14), and our cat. I previously lived in Seattle in 2018, but did not spend much time in Shoreline. This time around, it has been highly suggested for us. My daughter is very smart and creative, so a good school and safety is very important to us.

My questions are: is it possible to rent a 2BR decent (no frills) apartment for under $2500? Is it a competitive market?

My daughter leans a bit more alternative in fashion and interests. Would she have a difficult time making friends in this area?

I work in the legal support field (medical malpractice, real estate) does anyone have any insight to the job market for this area?

Additionally, if anyone would like to network or knows someone with a rental property, etc please feel free to DM me! I’d love to connect with locals prior to our move.

I’m looking for someone reputable to come out at scheduled times throughout the year to clean gutters and moss off the roof. My roofline isn’t very steep nor complex, but there are just so many trees that I struggle to keep up. Do you have someone you like for this service, and the cost is reasonable?

Hi everyone!
I am an incoming graduate student at the University of Washington (M.Ed. in Instructional Leadership), and I recently relocated to the Shoreline/Seattle area from South Korea.
Before moving to the US, I spent 13 years as a fully certificated Elementary School Teacher under the Metropolitan/Regional Offices of Education in South Korea. I hold an active Washington State Education Certificate as well as Grade I & II Professional Educator Licenses from Korea.
Whether you are a complete beginner picking up Hangul for the first time, an intermediate learner trying to master complex grammar, or someone looking to polish your business/academic Korean, I am offering highly structured, tailored 1:1 or small group private lessons.
What I offer:
Tailored Curriculum: No cookie-cutter worksheets. I design personalized lesson maps based on your specific learning style, goals (K-pop/K-drama, travel, business, TOPIK preparation), and current proficiency.
Pedagogical Expertise: With 13 years of classroom experience and a Master’s degree in Education, I know exactly how to break down complex linguistic concepts and make language acquisition engaging and highly efficient.
Flexible Modalities: I can accommodate both in-person sessions (around Shoreline/UW campus areas) and structured online lessons via Zoom/Teams.
Rates & Availability:
Rates are competitive and negotiable depending on the frequency and lesson format.
My schedule is quite flexible before and during the academic quarters to accommodate busy professionals and fellow students.
If you are looking for a reliable, deeply experienced native speaker who genuinely understands the science of teaching, please feel free to send me a DM! I’d love to chat about how we can reach your fluency goals.
Looking forward to connecting with the local community!
