We have a solution for the newly brewed war-plane controversy from last night’s light rail station design review. We agree that Capitol Hill is no place for a chopped up fighter jet to hang. But we’d be cool if it were a dismantled Blue Angel or twelve. Deal? For more on the review — and the citizenry’s reaction — check out the Slog’s coverage of the event.

Maybe broken up Flex Cars would please the Hillers.
who knew you could troll on your own blog.
isn’t a blue angels jet a fighter jet? just because it’s painted a different color and isn’t used to wage war doesn’t make the symbol any less of what it is.
if you have an issue with the proposed public art design (“We agree that Capitol Hill is no place for a chopped up fighter jet to hang”) why would you think a blue angels jet would be any better?
Because CHS has a long standing dislike for the Blue Angles.
I have left a detailed comment over at my blog SeattleJew. For now, however, this really smacks of the missionaries telling the injuns what good is.
500k would buy a lot more intersting art than this from some wonderful locals. Hell .. Chihuli is cheaper than that!
