Elliott Bay Book Co. moving to Capitol Hill

I'm guessing that most locals will have heard this news already, but there may be a few out-of-towners who would be interested: Elliott Bay Book Co. moving to Capitol Hill. The new location is between Pike and Pine on 10th, just a block off Broadway. The interesting tidbit in this story is that they didn't move because of rent, but because of a fall-off in business, which they attribute to their location. With Bailey-Coy just going out of business on Capitol Hill, I wonder whether this move will really help on that front.

*surprise* well, thanks for letting us know. It's relevant to me, because I make a beeline there on every visit, but if it weren't for your kindness in passing this on, I'd never hear about it.

As the move will be right around Potlatch-time, I hope we'll be kept informed as to the latest news. 'cause I'll probably forget to check.

I thought this might be of interest to you. I'll try to remember to post about this again when they actually move, but I'll also try to remember to mention to Luke that they might want to include something about it in the Potlatch program book or PRs.
