It appears that a Walker Bay (guessing) 8 is adrift heading north towards Emma Schmitz Viewpoint.

4800 Beach Drive Closed from Truck Hitting Utility Pole. Power Out for some Beach Drive Neighbors.
April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment
UPDATE: The driver was heading south when he veered onto the sidewalk, striking down the pole. Power was out for 58 homes for about 12 hours. A big thank you to the crew for working so hard to restore power.
Walking by the crash site on Sunday, broken glass and vehicle parts are strewn on the sidewalk as well as a lone can of “house wine” (not sure if the wine is associated with the accident but it is with the remaining wreckage).
The neighborhood chatter is that it was a man in his early twenties who was driving and is suspected of being impaired. Neighbors said they were told by the police that he was arrested for DUI. (Not confirmed with SPD).
Beach Drive is such a busy street, it’s amazing no one else was hurt.
Original post:
The driver appears to be okay and it looks like they were heading south on Beach drive when they struck the pole and possibly drove down the sidewalk (absolute guess on our part and speculation from neighbors). The mirror on the BMW is broken off. The dark colored truck is the vehicle that took down the pole.
We heard a loud explosion before the sirens around 2:20 pm.
Seattle City Light currently has 8:51 pm as the estimated time that power will be restored. The site is showing 58 homes without power.

Tear Down of 4134 Beach Drive SW
April 13, 2025 by Leave a Comment
This home that was built in 1913 located at 4134 Beach Drive Southwest, Seattle has had permits filed for quite a while for bigger plans than a single-family. We’ve walked by this home for years wondering “when” it was going to happen. Scupper posted about this home to celebrate it’s 100th birthday .
.
Here’s the property as it stands as of April 13, 2025.
The current plans for this property appear to be a 3-story 9-unit apartment building.
105 Year-Old Home Torn Down on Beach Drive
April 13, 2025 by 1 Comment
The home that was originally on 4714 SW Beach Drive was built in 1920. The gentleman who lived there was known by many as Eddy. We knew him as someone who loved to fish, garden and bird watching. He was always there with a helping hand. His original beach cottage home was sold after his passing. 
Below is the property as of April 13, 2025.
The building permit shows that a new two-story single-family dwelling will be on this lot.
Poisoned Mice found in Mee Kwa Mooks Woods
March 8, 2025 by Leave a Comment
Two separate posts on Facebook warn of poison being spread in the wooded trails of Mee Kwa Mooks park. We have not personally gone to the park to verify, however we feel it’s important to err on the side of caution and share this. Hopefully this person is caught asap.
