An Eliot Neighbor is planning to tether 100 balloons today and send them up 85 feet. Why? A development proposal for the west end of the block surrounded by Fremont, Williams and Ivy calls for a portion of the building on the Williams and Fremont corner to be 85 feet tall.
On the June 1st, dozens of neighbors gathered at NE Rodney and NE Tillamook to create Eliot’s first intersection painting. The twelve-hour effort, running from six o’clock in the morning to six o’clock in the afternoon, was the culmination of months of designing, signature gathering, and other planning efforts. This month, we finally put paint to pavement, transferring our vibrant graphic to the street. We hope that it brightens the path for pedestrians and bicyclists throughout the year!
The New Season Market on the corner of Williams and Fremont is getting closer to opening – expected in September. As part of preparing for opening day, New Seasons Market is hosting a job fair, primarily for the new store, but possibly for others as well, on Friday June 28th.
Room change- Room 4255 – this room is above the atrium on the right. 501 N Graham- go in, up the elevator to the fourth floor and across the sky-bridge. (Same as last month)

The movie night starts with free entertainment and popcorn at 6:30 followed by the movie showtime at dusk. Our fantastic lineup is as follows:
