Target is opening a store in downtown Seattle! The Seattle Times wrote an article about it recently. They will be moving into a three story space on Second Avenue between Pike and Union streets, which is really close to Pike Place Market. Most of Target's 1,700 stores are in suburban areas, but there are a few in urban areas. This location will occupy a space of 103,000 square feet, a little small compared to a regular size Target, which is 135,000 square feet.

Troy and I can't wait until it opens! Ever since we moved here, we've said over and over how much we wish Target would build a store downtown. It will be so much closer to us and we'll be able to walk there instead of having to drive to the one at Northgate. Unfortunately, it won't open for at least a year. But I'm sure we'll be there the first week it opens!
