The Seattle Opera Hosted Its First Official Furry Night
Writing and photography by West Smith Furries are everywhere. That’s the biggest lesson I took away from attending my first furry convention earlier this year. Before that, I think I still carried some lazy stereotype in my head about the furry community being made up exclusively of Reddit-dwelling teenagers. Then I got there and met […] The post The Seattle Opera Hosted Its First Official Furry Night appeared first on The Stranger.

The History of the Broadway Theater
Why did we do this? Read our case for making the marquee a landmark. The building itself, a wood-frame of average quality, is not special. But its green and cream interiors trimmed with silver must have seemed so to a Seattle Daily Times reporter in 1911, when 201 Broadway Avenue East was taking its first […] The post The History of the Broadway Theater appeared first on The Stranger.

The Old Broadway TheaterMarquee Should Be a Landmark
In February, news broke that McDonald’s had filed for a permit to spend $750,000 to turn the old Broadway Theater (once our most fashionable Rite Aid) into a fast food restaurant. We groaned a collective groan. McDonald’s doesn’t just move in. They turn storefronts into a wash of grays and blacks, with ever-growing golden arches.
