Essay on Third Avenue

Hi r/Seattle, A discussion on this sub a few weeks ago prompted me to think on the question of why Third Avenue has so many problems. I ended up researching and writing an essay on the topic, and would like to share in order to deepen our discourse. Anyone who wants to read it is welcome to do so, and anyone who would like to respectfully participate or correct my blind spots is also welcome.
