The amount of activity in the neighborhood is dizzying. New leases are getting signed, spaces are in build-out mode, and doors are opening for business. Sidewalk cafes are popping up just in time for our long-awaited summer. The farmers market, ArtsParks installations, and buskers are back in the parks. And the World Cup is bringing people together in bars, restaurants, conference rooms, lobbies, and Nord Alley. Where else could you possibly want to be right now?
The new Pioneer Square Map & Guide will be out soon, but here’s a head start on what’s new and unfolding. While it’s easy to get caught up in all that’s new and shiny, remember our existing businesses have been hard at work making this the neighborhood where others want to set up shop. So get out there. Take a walk. Visit a new restaurant, whether it’s new to Pioneer Square or new to you. Meet a friend for happy hour. Buy something for yourself, just because you can. Enjoy your neighborhood.
