Emerson Salon – Capitol Hill Seattle

Here are just a few updates on the changing scene of Capitol Hill:

New photo’s were featured on the Capitol Hill Blog of the soon to open Elliot Bay Books which will be on 10th between Pike and Pine (across from Rancho Bravo). The space looks amazing with huge ceilings and some great exposed beams. I can’t wait to see the finished product. You can get the full update on the CHS blog.

Another Pioneer Square business is rumored to be making the move to Cap Hill, with Pioneer Square Video eying a spot on Pine st across from 611 supreme.  More here at CHS.

Everyday Music will be moving onto 10th between Pike and Pine with Elliot Bay Books and a new art supply store is in the works for Everyday Music’s current space at Pine and Broadway.  More at CHS.  This article also confirmed that the new Elliot Bay Books will include a cafe.

Cap Hill Seattle got photos of the new Sonic Boom Records and Velouria clothing store on Melrose between Pike and Pine.

Seattle PI ran an article about a tour they took of the new Packard building with lots of pictures.  Looks like it will mostly include brand new luxury apartments, but rumor has it that it will also be home to a new permanent Skillet restaurant which would be fantastic and at 12th and Pine more than close enough for mid day lunch breaks!

The Lobby Bar opened across the street from us and look awesome.  Check out their website for more details.

PoDogs has become a new favorite for our current lunch run’s and with their all-day happy hour on Sundays, who can resist?

Part of what we love about this neighborhood is how dynamic it is with so many people working hard to make it better.  What other changes have you spotted in the works on Capitol Hill?
