Once known as "Denny Regrade," Belltown has been a resurgence in popularity. During the past decade, affluent city-dwellers flocked to the neighborhood, and restaurants and high-tech companies followed. All forms of downtown life can be found here. The streets house some of the city's trendiest clubs and bars, including the Crocodile Cafe on Second Avenue. The Moore Theatre, a historic concert hall, was built on Second Avenue in 1907. Upscale condos facing Elliott Bay stretch into the sky on First and Western avenues, and a few blocks east are artists' lofts. |
