“We’ve been very attracted to emerging corridors, neighborhoods with an identity, and areas where we feel like we can come in and compliment what’s already there while being a part of the momentum that’s growing this city. We’re really reliant on local entrepreneurs who have a vision and passion behind what they’re doing.”
In our new City Maker Conversations episode, DSA President & CEO Jon Scholes interviews Joe Ferguson of Lake Union Partners.
Developers of a number of signature properties in Seattle, Denver and Salt Lake City, Lake Union Partners is transforming a building in the heart of downtown that’s been standing largely vacant since the 1970s.
What was once a dilapidated structure a block away from Pike Place Market is about to become an elegant, modern hotel, a new restaurant and an anchor to one of the busiest intersections in downtown Seattle.
