I don't know about Seattle, but on my walk home there's Whole Foods, Best Buy and of course Chinatown. This particular Whole Foods is about 1 year old.

When I worked in Times Square I had to stop on my way home to go to the market etc. There is the dearth of nothing in some parts of midtown, or you'd have to at least shop at the bodegas and small little delis.

Big box stores like Target, Walmart, yes, I have to go "far" for them. Target is in Queens, Walmart in NJ. Both require I drive to them. I don't go to them often, and it isn't usual for food stuffs.

As it is though, the big box solutions don't work for me that well. I don't eat at home enough to warrant a giant size anything.

A car in the city is a crutch. If you don't have one, what would you do? You'd find a different way...thus find a different way.

google maps shows there are a few grocery stores nearby you. The walkabout maps of Google aren't in Seattle yet, so I can't look at them and say I'd walk into those.

They also look like they are ethnic groceries. I just did a tour in Chicago of going to 5-6 different enthnic groceries and had a blast...
