Last Friday, KUOW’s local news show “Week in Review” broadcast live from The Columbia City Theater. Local politicians and commentators Knute Berger, Bill Radke, Pramila Jayapal, and Chris Vance covered a wide array of topics, often centering the conversation around the Rainier Valley.
“Is Columbia City the new Ballard?” seemed to be the most popular refrain of the hour-long show with many neighbors chiming in and reminiscing about the way things once were and weighing in on the changes that have come to the area.
