No Liquor Store Update

  • Post author:

So’s ya knows, we pinged Anne Radford of the Washington State Liquor Control Board to see if she had an update on finding a new home for the liquor store Archie McPhee’s replaced. Her answer:

Not yet…we are still reviewing sites.

We’re still hoping Archie McPhee will start selling bathtub gin under the counter to tide us over.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Do you think that the old OfficeMax spot is too expensive or just too big? Right off the freeway and it has parking…

    Since OfficeMax is in the North Alcohol Impact Area I’d be surprised if the city would want a liquor store there. Tweedy and Popp?

    For those who come hear in search of answers to the liquor shortage (like I just did), here’s a link to replace the broken PI one above: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2009361170_apwaboozingthedeficit.html
    “The plan will add a new liquor store every 60 days starting this fall, for a total of 15 new locations – 10 run by the state, 5 operated by contractors.”
    So maybe we need to wait for fall?
