The Elliott Bay Book Company, an independent, family-owned bookstore, was founded in 1973 by Walter Carr in the space which currently houses our children's section. In 1976, with the generous support of the Globe Building's owners and numerous friends of the store, we moved the store to the building in the corner and took residence on our current home at 101 South Main Street. That space comprised the store's first two rooms. In subsequent years we grew, room by room, to occupy the various nooks and crannies we do today. One of those expansions took us downstairs, and The Elliott Bay Cafe, Seattle's original bookstore cafe, was opened in 1979. This reader's haven, with its tasty foods, tempting deserts and beverages, and convivial setting, has served as one of the city's meeting places from the day it opened.
