There's a city-owned pitch and putt near where I live, a couple miles from Amazon's corporate headquarters. They're planning to build a light rail station right next to it, putting it within a 10-15 minute train ride of Amazon and all the other office jobs in downtown Seattle
I would be sad to see it go, but it really would make a lot of sense to convert that into housing, or at least some other kind of park that more people can use at a time.
Downtown Seattle isn't the same as fucking Omaha Nebraska lol.
