Craig Montgomery Quotations

We want Occidental Park to be a place where more people of all incomes gather, and where criminal behaviors are displaced by positive behaviors.

I think everyone was surprised at the lack of crowds. There was no one in the neighborhood.

Every year, Mardi Gras in Pioneer Square has become less and less of an event.

It's not just an issue of the trees. The removal of the trees is part of the overall plan to reinvigorate the park.

It looked quite disturbing and fairly shocking. But I strongly believe that when we come out the other side, we are going to be pleased with our improved park.
