Hey, I'm Ton Vin, host of Seattle Eats, a fruit podcast from the Seattle Times and KOWW.

Seattle's waterfront got an $800 million makeover to create a vibrant public space.

But is it a tourist trap?

I'll tell you where to get a good bite with raving the crowds.

Hey there, from the KUOW Newsroom.

This is Seattle now.

I'm Paige Browning back in the saddle today. Thanks for keeping us in your

downloads as we launch further into summer. There's a lot of news today, so let's get to today's

headlines. It's Monday, July 14th. A well-known farm labor organizer in Washington, Skagit Valley,

has decided to give up his deportation fight for now and

return to Mexico. Alfredo Juarez Zepharino has been detained at the Northwest Ice Processing Center

in Tacoma since March. A crowd of supporters gathered outside there this morning while his

immigration hearing took place inside. His attorney Larkin Vanderhoffs says this latest decision

was tough for Juarez. He is a fighter and he wanted to fight. He wanted to be released to his community

that he's a part of and in many ways a leader of. But Vanderhoff says poor conditions at the

facility and steep legal odds of getting out

are why Juarez decided to give up the fight. Warez's 15-year-old sister, Alea Juarez Zepharina,

Juarez has no criminal record.
