Convention Center bus station; northeast end of the tunnel

Looks like the article is already pretty image-heavy. I leave it to someone else to decide whether this one I shot is useful. - Jmabel | Talk 09:03, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Move the page?

It seems to me it might not be a bad idea to move this page to Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel, and redirect Metro Transit Tunnel there. Most Metro and Sound Transit sources, as well as signage, now refer to it as the DSTT (or Downtown Transit Tunnel, as the signs within the tunnel say). Perhaps also redirect DSTT to this page. Any thoughts? Joshuadkelley (talk) 11:09, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. Move completed. SchuminWeb (Talk) 13:31, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Future expansion

Are there any plans to expand the tunnel? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.67.35.97 (talk) 05:11, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

There are no plans to expand the tunnel as a dual-mode tunnel right now. The only expansion plans are for the extension of the Pine Street Stub Tunnel out north to U.W. for the Link Light Rail University Extension. While the current DSTT is for both light rail and buses, the extension will be light rail trains only. Joshuadkelley (talk) 06:42, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Stations table?

Anyone think that turning the stations list into a table is a good idea? Like at User:Oranviri/DSTT_Stations_table Oranviri (talk) 23:05, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

I THINK it was that way once, but I'm not sure when it was changed. If all of the station picture are included (as they are now), it would look more organized as a table.Joshuadkelley (talk) 00:15, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't this page mention the beating of Aiesha Steward-Baker?

Seems relevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.193.18.43 (talk) 17:41, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia is NOTNEWS. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
I agree with SarekOfVulcan. It might be mentioned in passing IF or WHEN security policies are changed, though. Joshuadkelley (talk) 07:43, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

  • In the last sentence, I'd delete the word "controversial". Readers will already understand the dispute over the buses, having read this far into the article.

This is an excellent article and, these minor tweaks aside, I look forward to promoting it. --Coemgenus (talk) 12:08, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

Lede is too long

Lede is too long -DePiep (talk) 21:06, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

It's a long article, the lead is sized accordingly. SounderBruce 21:13, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
Yes, it's a long article. And: the lede is too long. -DePiep (talk) 21:18, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
