Personally, I would like to see the viaduct removed and replaced with a tunnel. But bear in mind.....I handle labor relations matters on large, public construction projects. Self-interest. That project would be MASSIVELY expensive. But.....it would also make sense. It could give Seattle a waterfront to rival any other in the world.

Yes, Seattle has not invested in enough transportation infrastructure in recent decades. Sound Transit is moving forward on some of the mass transit stuff including and especially "light rail." A friend of mine works in downtown Seattle and lives in Auburn. In my 911, disregarding speed laws, I could make it from downtown to Auburn in a half-hour safely if there were no other cars on the road. She makes that trip, in that time frame (half-hour) every day during rush hour. Trains are good.
