2025 was a landmark year marking the Downtown Community Council's first full calendar year of operation.  It was an exciting year focused on amplifying Downtown Core residents' voices, building community, and collaboration through 60+ public events, programs and activities. ​Through all of it, collaboration was at the heart everything we did: collaboration with our neighbors, our surrounding community councils, city and county officials, and downtown non-profits and public agencies.

​

Our work confirmed what we already knew: residents LOVE living Downtown for its culture, accessibility, and neighborly spirit. Our success is a direct reflection of our passionate neighbors who live in the Downtown Core and share their time and talent with us, the neighborhood and City.  We look forward to working alongside you in 2026 to ensure the Downtown Core is the most vibrant and livable neighborhood in Seattle - one where all can thrive.
