Been fun. But it is time to kill this neighborhood blog.
In its place, we propose something a tiny bit bigger.
Whatever small success the "Fancy Pants" blog achieved was surely due to focus. We learned quickly not to stray from the Hill. Instead, we celebrated the minutiae of a few city blocks.
Now, we are about to mess with that recipe ever so slightly. The neighborhood limits, starting now, are expanded. From The Fancy Pants and Miller Park neighborhoods in the east to the I-5 Shores in the west. From Pike/Pine in the south to the Northern Fringes in the, um, north to the heart of the Hill on Broadway and the Institution Belt, we begin again.
Neighbors, we give you the new CHS Capitol Hill Seattle --
www.capitolhillseattle.com. Long may she wave.
Here, any neighbor and every neighbor can post. Here, we can stretch out to all of the Hill. Here, J can squeeze in even more ads and crazy gadgets and doohickeys into the template. Nothing can go wrogn.
To join the fun,
register for an account and start posting. We've asked also a few other Hill bloggers to jump aboard to keep things interesting. Good and interesting stuff will appear on the homepage. We'll let you explore the rest.
When you create a post, you'll have the opportunity to select a neighborhood area to assign it to and add it to the map so everybody knows where on the Hill you're writing about.
Our
CHS neighborhood names are meant to be fun and descriptive. When you join the site and post, you can choose from the CHS names or create your own neighborhood label. A neighborhood, after all, should be defined by its neighbors.
