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

Over the past few weeks there have been a number of rumors circulating of a potential move by one of Seattle’s most iconic businesses, Elliot Bay Books, from Pioneer Square to Capitol Hill. This is a very exciting prospect and could do some great things for the neighborhood. Currently the owner of Elliot Bay seems to have not made a public decision yet, but their lease is up in 2 months so we should probably be hearing a solid decision soon. Whatever Elliot Bay decides, they would be a welcome addition to Capitol Hill and we can’t wait to hear what they decide! More info in the CHS Blog and The New Pioneer Square.

Zero 7, the downbeat electronic indie band, is coming to Seattle to put on another show. While they have been long acclaimed they have struggled to live up to their past glory they received on their first album Simple Things. All the same they have made some great tracks and one of their best is the song Destiny (video below), hopefully their set will include some of these classics. More details of the show can be found here on the Showbox website.

We can’t help it, we just can’t get the ridiculously sticky song Home (music video below) out of our heads. There is something altogether appealing about this simple and easy song, even if AllMusic.com repeatedly call the band “cultish”. Regardless, this is sure to be an interesting show and have some excellent music. More details on the show are at the Neumos website. Check out the video for their song “Home”.

The holiday season just isn’t the same without all the trappings of Christmas, such as pop-rock holiday music, mad rushes at the mall, and gingerbread lattes, but one absolute must every holiday season is the annual showing of the Nutcracker by the Pacific Northwest Ballet. This production of Hoffman’s classic tale includes some impressive dancing, massive sets, and one giant mouse king. Easily PNB’s most iconic performance, if there is one ballet you attend, this is the one you should see.
The Nutcracker’s season began on Nov 27th and will run through December 30th. If you are looking for something a little different, the Dec 30th performance is what they call the “Nutty Nutcracker” performance where the cast gets to let off a little steam and have fun with there own version of the tale. Tickets and more info is available on the PNB website.
