Back from the dead

Like everyone most folks in the neighborhood, I was horrified to hear that another gang of Eastside developers had purchased a stretch of buildings near the lot with plans to convert beloved spaces like Bauhaus, Wall of Sound, Spine and Crown Books, and Mud Bay into more overpriced housing. I'm sure plenty of emails and facebook posts are circulating between different groups of people about how to approach this problem, but I've only been privy to one discussion. I'll share everything I learn and will cross-post if other sites start up to try and organize people.
