CityTarget To Open This Week In Downtown Seattle

July 22, 2012 By admin Leave a Comment

The urban-concept Target store that we wrote about years ago is finally opening its doors – this week! The new store, named “CityTarget” is located on 2nd and its just one block from Pike Place Market. Seattle is one of three locations opening this Wednesday. The others include Los Angeles and Chicago. According to the Times, Downtown Seattle’s population has increased 72% from 1990 to 2010. Target executives, like many others, are pretty bullish on the downtown Seattle core. Check out the detailed graphic featured in this weekends article (via the Seattle Times):

Many Seattle condo owners stand to benefit from these developments as well. Projects within walking distance of the new opening include 1521, Newmark, Four Seasons, Escala, Cristalla, Market Place Tower, 98 Union, Madison Tower and Millennium Tower. If you plan on checking it out, keep in mind that parking is only validated on purchases of $20 or more.

Valentines Day At Pike Place Market

February 13, 2011 By admin Leave a Comment

I surprised my wife today with a trip to the spa and a few hours down at Pike Place Market. It was a great reminder of how international Seattle can feel. It always amazes me to see such diversity in just a few city blocks. It was a really fun experience exploring, drinking coffee and the 2 minutes of my chocolate croissant (unbelievable). Combine the typical diversity, great weather and the buzz around Valentines day and you have a perfect experience in one of our cities most cherished attractions.

I’ve included some pictures of the market, Post Alley and the Seattle skyline. To me it is such a fun experience to look back at the city.
