What do you miss about old Seattle?

Lately, I’ve found myself getting oddly sentimental about old Seattle — you know, before every block had a luxury condo and “organic artisanal dog water” was a thing.

Maybe you miss the days when you could actually find parking in Ballard, or when Capitol Hill felt a little more gritty and a little less like a techie showroom. Or maybe it’s a beloved dive bar, a quirky shop, or just the vibe before Amazon turned half the city into badge-scanning zombies.

Whatever it is — the people, the places, the prices — what do you miss most about the Seattle that used to be?

Let’s get nostalgic (and maybe a little salty).
