So the situation on the ground in Capitol Hill is this: The City’s other departments are continuing to provision services as usual, respectful of protestors’ and campers’ wishes. Businesses continue to operate — some large chains are boarded up, but small restaurants are open. Local apartment residents come and go as they please. The only difference over any other part of Seattle: no cars, no cops.

@kate this is cool!
The barricades aren’t going anywhere, but vacant buildings remain vacant even as folks camp on the sidewalk. There seems to be a lot of willingness to collaborate in the air — wandering around for an hour or so, even in the early afternoon, will find you large groups of people chatting about what they can do together.
