    • 2024 May 29, Mike Baker, “Sleepless in Seattle as a Hellcat Roars Through the Streets”, in The New York Times[1], →ISSN:
      The Belltown neighborhood has been transformed in recent decades from a grungy, semi-industrial arts district to a sort of ideal of moneyed urban living, with bike-friendly streets, hip cafés and condo towers so desirable that one penthouse there became the setting of the steamy “Fifty Shades of Grey” book series.
