Museum of History and Industry

Our beloved MOHAI, the museum of Seattle history, has to move - and wants to. Mohai needs every dollar it can get to pull it off.

Seattle Mayor McGinn announced he opposes $7 million agreed to by the city parks commissioner. I can see McGinn's side, but I hope the money is approved. The $7 mil was agreed to while things were/are moving - less money from the Feds, more money from the State, etc.

Some are portraying this as reneging on an agreement, but the parks commissioner can't commit the city's funds and didn't. It requires a vote of the city council.

Money is tight, but I hope it's approved.

MOHAI
