2004, while I agree it's "not completed ruined", it feels like we're slowly pushing out much of the middle class, and with it, artists and other culturally important folk. Give it 10 years and the only people that will be able to afford the city is one specific income bracket.
I think if you moved to the city post 2010, you probably don't realize what "old Seattle" was like.
