The problem with Pike Place Market and tourism is that, in general, tourists are from out of town and really can’t buy seafood. They have no place to cook it.

I felt guilty being a looky loo. There was so much I would have bought if only I’d been local.

The Pike Place motivational film put them on the map, but contributed to their current issues.

This business could end up being loved to dearh.
