How about one last CHS post about the new Glo’s? Its arrival seems to be the final bump needed to get more daily use of the plaza above Capitol Hill Station.
The new diner’s perch on the edge of the AIDS Memorial Pathway and plaza affords some new opportunities starting with the deck area at Glo’s where the diner’s Julie Reisman tells CHS seating will be going in soon just across from E Barbara Bailey Way and Cal Anderson Park.
There is also a future opportunity for Glo’s to spread out along the plaza with more patio seating but Reisman said the plan is see how the deck works out first.
One thing that Glo’s won’t be using the plaza for is parking. Work vehicles were in the plaza as the restaurant got its final opening touches but that was a temporary thing, Reisman said.
A few more businesses are also being lined up to open around the plaza.
Meanwhile, Sundays will continue to transform the space into the home of the Capitol Hill Farmers Market. And Gay City: Seattle’s LGBTQ Center will also continue to program events and gatherings in the plaza.
Finally, Sound Transit’s promised bike parking will finally be added above the station this summer. A spokesperson says crews will soon be doing some site work and preparation for the installation of 16 on-demand bicycle lockers. The new lockers should be open by late summer.
