Summary

No other American downtown area is developing at anywhere near the rate that Seattle is. In this industry, it's impossible not to get caught up in the excitement every time that gorgeous skyline (and all those cranes) come into sight on I5. 

Exciting new frontiers, revitalizing old neighborhoods, a host of opportunities and challenges to match- there are too many stories to tell. Our expert panelists will convene the morning of August 24 to take you on a journey through the roots of today's downtown to the urbanization patterns of post-automatic car Seattle. This is one neighborhood event you won't want to miss. As always, come early and stay late for ample networking!
