Lorie is on TV again

Lorie is on TV again because she’s so active in the South Lake Union (SLU) neighborhood. This time she was at a city council meeting and it ended up on Q13 Fox in the “Proposed South Lake Union towers generate controversy” story.
Most arguments center around “towers versus no towers” but Lorie is pointing out that the real problem is the proposal for big, blocky podiums. A podium (the area below a big tower) of 85 feet or so would be terrible for the SLU neighborhood. That’s as big as our residential building and combined with a tower above it, would block all sunlight on Lake Union Park.
