What we’re about
This is a group for anyone interested in talking about how we interact with our built environment - with a specific focus on Seattle's Eastside cities and suburbs. If you live, work, or play on the Eastside (or even if you don't), and are interested in talking about things like infrastructure, transportation, transit, Vision Zero, housing, zoning, urban planning, sustainability, equity, accessibility, affordability, cities or places in general, you are welcome in this space! We are most active on Discord, and we have in-person meetups every Thursday!

See all- Eastside Urbanism Weekly Meetup!Jack Sprat, Redmond, WA
Every Thursday, we are at Jack Sprat in Esterra Park hanging out and talking about our built environment. Grab some food or a drink! Meet neighbors and hear about what's going on locally! All are welcome!
Is there a particular way that your city is failing you? Want to figure out how you can do something about it? Did you move here from somewhere that is quite different? Are you unable to find housing that meets your needs where you want to live? Is your commute miserable? Do you bike, take transit, or wish you could? What is working here and what isn't? Let's talk about it!Find us at Jack Sprat! Look for orange t-shirts, our logo tablecloth, bike helmets, or the big group of people excitedly talking about zoning rules and bus routes. Arriving late or leaving early is just fine - the cafe now closes at 8pm, the last trains run around 9:30pm, and we'll be there until we're done :)
Event RSVPs on this website do not paint an accurate picture - we usually are a group of 10-25 people each week. This group is mostly active on our Discord server - please join if you'd like to connect!

Join us! We love meeting new people! - Redmond 2 Line Opening Bike Ride!The Village at Totem Lake, Kirkland, WA
Join us on a bike ride from Totem Lake to the Downtown Redmond light rail station on opening day!
We will be meeting in The Village at Totem Lake, next to Salt and Straw. We will be leaving shortly after 11AM so that we can arrive in Downtown Redmond in time for the ribbon cutting!
This will be a casual paced ride (10-12 mph) along both separated paths, and in bike lanes. Dress for the weather in layers! Bring a spare tube if you have one, just in case. You can view the route here.
Stick around in Redmond after the ride! There will be tons of vendors and activities nearby, organized by Move Redmond. Cascade Bicycle Club will be running a bike valet, so you won't even need a lock! Oh, and you can be one of the first people to ride the light rail extension, too.
