Mayor Admits Downtown Seattle May Not Return to Normal, Prioritizing Revitalization
Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell announced his office’s plan to prioritize the restoration of the downtown core in his 2023 State of the City address. Following a year in which the city saw nearly 50,000 cases of crime, Harrell emphasized hope for a better 2023. Citing how the district is home to 100,000 residents and over 320,000 jobs, the mayor sees Downtown Seattle as the “undisputed economic engine and cultural hub of our region.” Join The Center Square's Jeremy Lott and Spencer Pauley on this episode of Washington in Focus.
