But sales were up...a lot.
Mixed string of news about the market over the past year, which is why I'm so hesitant to say we have recovered. The economic and housing situation is not simple; many factors still at play that are influencing pricing, demand from buyers, and supply of housing being released.
Quoted: According to data collected by the Northwest Multiple Listing Service (NWMLS), the average sale price of a home in King County last month was $415,581, down from $421,521 in October and well off the average sale price of November 2008 of $440,062. The median (half sold for more, half for less) sale price in King County last month was $337,000, down from $349,950 in October and down from $365,000 in November 2008.

Just catching up on the news that Maurice Clemmons was shot on Dec 1st. Was Maurice setting a trap to kill the first responder to a reported stolen vehicle. That seems plausible, but why then did he approach the police car with his gun in his pants, instead of drawn and ready to fire?
I can't imagine the stress placed on Officer Benjamin Kelly in making the identification and decision to shoot Clemmons in just a matter of seconds.
Quoted: Maurice Clemmons body was probably still warm when I started getting text messages and e-mails from my friends in the Seattle/Tacoma area early Monday morning. The manhunt was over. The mainstream

Love this Greek spot in Queen Anne...
Quoted: In the menu, you will not encounter gyros, tasty food enough in its own right, but the culinary equivalent of the American hot dog or hamburger. Instead, the range of selections offered here represents the true splendor of Greek regional cuisine, characteristic dishes lovingly crafted just as they are in traditional kitchens of all the far-flung towns of Greece.

The ice house project is interesting. The pictures and info about Detroit housing really good, especially the ones that compare circa 1950 to now.
