Episode Details

Seattle’s paying $775,000 to settle a lawsuit after a 67-year-old man suffered serious injuries—head trauma and three back fractures—when he tripped on exposed rebar near Broadway and Harvard.

The rebar is now gone, and while the city declined further comment, the settlement underscores growing concerns over hidden hazards in Seattle streets.
