CAMPING AT QUEST CHURCH: This could get interesting. Brand new, I mean totally brand new tents have been pitched right on the sidewalk outside Quest Church(@seattlequest) in Ballard. How long will this ministry allow this to flourish? #Seattle

PROGRESS WAS BEING MADE: Just a few months ago, the city removed the eco-blocks around the Leary Triangle, with plans to turn it into a dog park. #Seattle

REMEMBER THIS? I think it's fair to say neighbors do not want a repeat of Leary Triangle encampment that was left to flourish for more than a year. #Seattle

BALLARD IS IN TROUBLE: In May, this RV blew up right next to the Jack In The Box. #Seattle

BACK IN MARCH: Homeless suspected of burning down part of Ballard @JackBox. This location remains problematic and is surrounded by multiple RV and tent encampments. #Seattle
