And soon, too, we believe, the garbage pit down on 35th will be transformed into a modern, urban…garbage pit. Ready for a glimpse of the future? Join the Bob Quinn and friends for a tour of the old pit and a glimpse of the future.

Not in my backyard! Put it where it belongs. Nearer to poor people.
Oh, Max. Sounds like you might enjoy the East Side. 😉
I love our dump. I hope that whatever the new design entails, they keep the ability to throw things from a high ledge.
Still a really bad idea –
Belongs in Interbay (original location) where the trash can be loaded directly into rail cars (that’s where the gi-normous trucks that bust up and clog our streets take it).
The people at the city who are supposedly working this don’t know enough to be effective; the woman I talked to didn’t know the first thing about railroads – not acceptable!
Show up on Saturday and stop it!
