Coming out at Comet Tavern

Editor's note: “Dance Yourself Clean” is a biweekly column dedicated to reviewing local nightlife establishments through the eyes and sensibilities of an introvert.

A younger generation is giving new life to Seattle’s iconic floating homes

On Lake Union and Portage Bay, longtime floating home residents are moving on, and young families are taking their place. For many newcomers, the draw is as much the close-knit community as the uniqueness of the homes.

Inside, though, the homes are private and quiet, and docks are usually silent by 9 PM.
