A Case for Wine—
Five Great Reasons Seattle Needs a Wine District in Interbay

Posted on September 21, 2009, 2:46 pm, by Freehold, under Interbay, Re-Use, Retail, Wine.

After researching the different possibilities for an urban wine district and by talking to winery operators around Washington, we came up with the following reasons we think Interbay would be the perfect location:

1. There isn’t one in Seattle. Enough said.

2. Bringing a group of wineries together increases the sales of Washington wines.

3. Bringing a group of wineries together makes for great wine tasting events.

4. The affordability of retail locations in Interbay would enable the participation of quality small- to mid-size wineries in the area.

5. The cruise ship industry. With Interbay positioned near the newly opened port, tourists will have access to the best the state has to offer, without figuring out how to get to Woodinville or Walla Walla.

In the planning stages, the wine district would – as we see it now – consist of a long wing of connected retail storefronts in the mixed-use Interbay Building, with a large covered outdoor patio and lounge area for shared use.

If you think you can help make this happen, call or email us with your thoughts.
