Tiny umbrellas are not required, but are very much encouraged. So for all those folks out there questioning any idea that allows public alcohol (even on one day of the month in one neighborhood), I would like to add my proposal on top of the mayor's proposal for Pioneer Square: All alcoholic drinks travelling through Pioneer Square should be served in a pineapple.
I noticed that nobody seemed to mind or question the pineapple much.
SIP HOUSE SEATTLE FULL
I probably shouldn't admit this, but I would often walk off with that pineapple (once it was empty) and stroll through downtown Portland with a pineapple snack (I do not endorse walking around in public with full pineapple cocktails where it is illegal). There was one particular spot with outdoor seating where they served a cocktail in a pineapple.
During this time, I learned an important lesson. Years ago, while I was living in Portland, the mayor at the time would open a keg at city hall during art walk days. In fact, cities like Bellevue and Renton have leaned in to sip 'n stroll events. There are so many, you can hit multiple towns in a week, or even have a very artful month. Just take a trip to any of the plethora of art walks scattered throughout our region. Add that up and the aim is to get more people on Pioneer Square streets, visiting local shops, galleries, and food trucks. Also bundled up in this proposal is a measure to relax some permitting rules to get more food carts down in the area. It will require a special permit from the state's Liquor and Cannabis Board. The hope is that this will produce some much-needed foot traffic by getting people to visit Pioneer Square and walk from gallery to gallery. So this is for one corner of the city, on one day of the month, targeted at the art gallery crowd. The idea here is to allow alcoholic beverages in Pioneer Square during its First Thursday Art Walk (hyped as being the longest-running art walk in the USA). Let's get something straight, because I'm sure there will be headlines and hot takes making it sound as if the mayor's office wants to open every downtown Seattle street to booze. In everything we do, we are always dedicated to Our Mission: With every cup, with every conversation, with every community - we nurture the limitless possibilities of human connection.Mayor Bruce Harrell wants folks to walk the streets of downtown Seattle, and open a cold one. Over the next two decades, we would grow to welcome millions of customers each week and become a part of the fabric of tens of thousands of neighborhoods all around the world. By 1996, we would cross the Pacific to open our first store in Japan, followed by Europe in 1998 and China in 1999. Starbucks would soon expand to Chicago and Vancouver, Canada and then on to California, Washington, D.C. By 1987, we swapped our brown aprons for green ones and embarked on our next chapter as a coffeehouse. It was on a trip to Milan in 1983 that Howard first experienced Italy’s coffeehouses, and he returned to Seattle inspired to bring the warmth and artistry of its coffee culture to Starbucks. After joining the company in 1982, a different cobblestone road would lead him to another discovery. Ten years later, a young New Yorker named Howard Schultz would walk through these doors and become captivated with Starbucks coffee from his first sip. Our name was inspired by the classic tale, “Moby-Dick,” evoking the seafaring tradition of the early coffee traders. It was here where Starbucks opened its first store, offering fresh-roasted coffee beans, tea and spices from around the world for our customers to take home. Our story begins in 1971 along the cobblestone streets of Seattle’s historic Pike Place Market.
