Rails have been placed within new pavement along S. 
			Lander St. in this view taken during early Central Link construction.  
			There is little or no evidence that a light rail station (SODO) will 
			arise ahead in ensuing years.   
			 
			Although there are numerous street crossings in the Rainier Valley, 
			only the intersections in the SODO area are controlled with crossing 
			gates and standard warning signs and lights.
			 
			 
			The soaring and somewhat ungainly structure to the left is the 
			retractable roof of Safeco Field, home to baseball's Seattle 
			Mariners. |
