Seattle is working overtime to bring its downtown back. The loss of tourists and office workers the past year and a half left the area struggling. The city is pouring $9 million into the revitalization of downtown, which includes the retail core as well as Pike Place Market and Pioneer Square.

Some city leaders, including Mayor Jenny Durkan, say recovery of the area is vital as it accounts for the majority of the city's tax revenue. But some business owners are skeptical of Seattle’s commitment and say underlying issues, such as public safety, need to be addressed.
