Happy weekend Queen Anne! Be careful driving in the rain, and if you venture downtown tomorrow, keep in mind that SDOT is closing down Pike St. between 1st and 2nd avenues from 7 a.m. on Saturday, November 7 to 5 a.m. on Sunday, November 8 so that crews may restore three concrete panels after they were removed for underground utility work. There will be no parking on Pike between 1st and 2nd during the closure, as the concrete needs extra time to cure. The sidewalk will remain open for pedestrians daring enough to walk around in a rain storm.
