Seattle Restored

In parntership with Good Business Network of Washington, we match small business owners with vacant commercial storefronts to host pop-up shops.

We want to encourage people to visit downtown Seattle and other commercial areas to support local businesses — particularly Black, Indigenous, and other entrepreneurs of color. These projects also benefit neighborhoods and property owners by creating vibrant, engaging streetscapes.

Seattle residents can participate by running their business as a pop-up shop in a vacant commercial space. 

Visit the Seattle Restored website for more information about the program, upcoming events, and how to participate.

Check out the Seattle Restored map to locate participating small businesses.

Our office is dedicated to creating an accessible and inclusive economy that works for everyone in Seattle by ensuring all communities have access to economic opportunities.

The City of Seattle encourages everyone to participate in its programs and activities. If you need help, translation, disability accommodations, or materials in a different format, contact our office at (206) 684-8090 or at OED@seattle.gov.
