Just a note, Amazon is not responsible for Seattle's poor decision making when it comes to city planning, the housing crisis and their poor decisions when dealing with (or choosing not to deal with) the homeless situation in Seattle. They have done plenty of horrible things, and the article is totally fair to point those out, but it seems beyond the pale to blame Seattle City council's failings and poor governance on Amazon. As for the roads, Seattle is really three small towns jammed together, so the city planning was a nightmare, then there was a few city corruption scandals, etc etc etc and now the police are told to not enforce vagrancy laws and I think everyone is caught up. None of that has anything to do with Amazon.
