Move Northward Seattle Center Faces Deep Appointments Fight
Prominent city interests oppose shifting the retail center northward toward Second avenue and Westlake boulevard. Jacob Furth and other backers are cited as influential in resisting regrading and delaying progress while Walsh Construction takes over Erickson’s contract to push the northward growth. Historic rivalries with North Seattle and Belltown echo past battles over routes and hub placement. The coming city hall and court house near the old university grounds may hasten the northward shift.
