HOT FOOD @ FARMERS’ MARKET: The
Seattle/King County Public Health approval to bring back hot food, so vendors can again cook and serve at the market. But rules remain – for example, the announcement says:
Shoppers are not allowed to congregate in front of booths to wait for orders. When you arrive at market, check-in with your favorite prepared food vendor first thing. If it looks like your meal will take more than five minutes to prepare, do a lap, take care of your grocery shopping, then pick up your food on your way out. Each vendor will have their own method of managing wait times that best suit their business.

Will Swedish Pediatrics also stay at the 41st Ave SW location?

Rumor has it Kaiser Permanente (who currently lacks a West Seattle presence) will be taking over the old Swedish location

If I remember correctly, Group Health (now KP) was a former tenant in Jefferson Square back in the 1990s.

The letter does not mention the pediatrics clinic. It does not say if Swedish is adding clinic space at 4744 41st, or is converting the pediatrics clinic to the internal medicine clinic. It is evident from the letter that West Seattle is losing medical services with this move. The surgical and dermatology specialist doctors will no longer have offices in West Seattle. We will have to travel to downtown or further away for consultations and pre- and post-op follow up visits.
Capco Plaza in The Junction (4100 SW Alaska), says manager
Dolly Amend, but its future is in flux again. We first reported in November that the store was closing because
Swedish is taking over that space. Then last month there was word of a new owner. Now, Amend says, that sale has fallen through but another one is pending, still with the aim of moving the store to
Jefferson Square – with the same staff – but in the meantime, the store’s closing after this week, she says. “The discounts are deep … the last week of great deals.” P.S. As for Swedish’s plan in the space, we’ve asked repeatedly for information; so far, no comment.
