Shape Pioneer Square's Future

By JOURNAL STAFF

Mayor Bruce Harrell is inviting community members to apply for open positions on the Pioneer Square Preservation Board. Open positions include a property owner position, an at-large position, retail owner position, an attorney position, and a human services position. Individuals who have an interest in historic preservation and/or familiarity with Pioneer Square are encouraged to apply.

The ten-member Pioneer Square Preservation Board reviews facade alterations, signs, new construction, changes of use, and street improvements, and makes recommendations to the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods director for all properties within the International Special Review District.

The goals of the board are to maintain architectural character, cultural heritage, social diversity and, through the use of historic preservation, enhance the economic climate in the Pioneer Square Preservation District.

In general, board members commit approximately three to six hours per month to board business. Members serve without compensation.

Those interested in being considered should send a letter of interest and resume by Friday June 6, 2025 to genna.nashem@seattle.gov and should reference the Pioneer Square Preservation Board position in the subject line.
