Urban Issues Watch from the NY Times:
Seattle Monorail

It was a cabdriver's dream, five years ago, that led this city into a flight of fancy that it could build the country's biggest monorail system to ease its ever-worsening traffic problems. Despite two citywide votes favoring such a plan, the monorail was scorned by much of the political establishment and relegated to civic limbo. It appeared to be headed down the process-driven lane that has killed many other plans — death by a thousand studies.
