NOW: A double irony for the Denny Regrade is that the two largest parts of this effort began in 1907 and 1929, and only months before economic “panics” put caps to booming visions of skyscrapers. The modern “resurrection” of the Denny Regrade came first in the 1970s. Here at 5th and Battery, only now does the condominium euphoniously named Insignia Seattle prepare to lift the regrade 41-stories. Here as well the 1962 World’s Fair Monorail in Jean’s vigorous “now” may be considered a kind of elevated “repeat” for the 1929 conveyor.
