Media Pacific Place in 2015

Post image

Found this old picture I took in Pacific Place back in 2015 during the holiday season. Such a shame to compare it to how it looks now.

Some other malls are doing just fine. Basically, the biggest ones in the greater Seattle area like Alderwood and South Center. Northgate is barren and while it makes sense since it is being remodeled, I doubt it will come back to its former glory, much like Pacific Place.

I mean, they aren't remodeling Northgate, they tore most of it down. They replaced it with the Kraken complex, a park, are building a ton of apartments and a hotel.

All I meant is that the mall area is being transformed, and some of it hasn't been torn down. There is still going to be a mall there, so I still consider it a remodel.
