Nike to close downtown Seattle store. – Nike

The location at Sixth Avenue and Pike Street, which first opened in 1996, closed on Thursday. 
Nike has not publicly provided a reason for the closing, but Seattle has recently been victim of a climb in violent crimes and homelessness. 

According to the Downtown Seattle Association (DSA), since the start of the pandemic in March 2020, around 500 street-level businesses closed and around 300 new businesses opened in downtown Seattle. Other Seattle stores to close include Starbucks, Seattle Credit Union, and a host of local small businesses. 

Looking ahead, the company is set to open a new full-scale store in Bellevue Square. Other Nike stores near by include the Nike clearance store in Auburn and the Nike factory store in North Bend.
