First Streetcar Line Will Be MLK?
the City Manager announced that the next streetcar line will most likely be on MLK. He said the city is pursuing that route because of an LID underway in that area - and because of the muscle power of Multicare at one end of Hilltop and the Franciscans at the other end. He also said it might be built out of sequence with a planned extension of the downtown LINK streetcar up Stadium Way.

This via Morgan's Brain on FeedTacoma.
I think it's an interesting idea, and if it means getting rail in the ground sooner rather than later, I'm for it.
Connecting the two hospitals, and then wrapping the LINK up Stadium Way and connecting the two lines at Multicare seems to make sense.
But, and here I agree with Morgan, I wouldn't want it to detract from a line up 6th Ave, which makes the most sense to me, especially connecting that line to TCC and eventually the UP Town Center.
