A clarification on something we wrote in our endorsement of mayor Nickels. We said: “His biggest shortcoming is not forcing neighborhoods to accept more density. A whopping 75 percent of Seattle is zoned single family and unless that changes his urban-center density plan will backfire. Instead of driving housing prices down through increased development, he will drive them up by creating unaffordable yuppie enclaves.”

We should have said—as we do in the on-line version: “A whopping 75 percent of Seattle’s residential land is zoned single-family and unless that changes, his urban-center density plan will backfire. Instead of driving housing prices down through increased development, he will drive them up by creating unaffordable yuppie enclaves.”
