She was literally the only person who didn't sell when offered, that's why the Ballard blocks is built around her house.

She was pretty much the only person in Ballard that didn't sell when offered.

Seattle's Swedish hospital is offering a similar service at their Ballard Campus.

If you want more reading along this line, I cannot recommend JG Ballard highly enough.

Both Le Guin and Ballard are absolutely worth it!

I'd expect the effect on Fremont and Ballard to be a bit more muted than Noe or Bernal or the Mission, but yeah, they'll feel it up there.

One driver actively campaigned for me to start using Lyft and another decided that downtown to Ballard (as in just outside University Street tunnel station to 15th and Market) needed to go via the Fremont bridge.

I grew up in SF in the 70s and 80s, and while I know Seattle (and pacific northwesterners in general) often resist the comparison to SF, I gotta tell you, I felt a vibe in Ballard and Fremont that had been missing for a very long time.

Looks like this restaurant on the corner of the Ballard Blocks was also a "holdout"...

When I think of "rockstar" or "10x'er" engineers I think of Fabrice Ballard.

"If 520 was accessible by Freemont, Ballard, Queen Anne, and Magnolia the area that could live on the west side and commute to the east would increase by at least 8x." Looks like the perfect reason _not_ to increase road capacity from Freemont, Ballard, Queen Anne and Magnolia to 520.

The big name in the 90s, Ballard, had buy in from a couple of car companies and no oil companies.

Ballard's novels - seemed to be sci-fi but not so on-the-nose that it beat you over the head with it.

Great article, I wasn't aware of this one of Ballard's works, though it's definitely on the list now.
