With so many obituaries in our city, this first edition of Arcade's new quarterly magazine hopes to convey that there is still creative life and a strong community thriving in Seattle and that publications such as ours will continue to highlight those individuals and projects. In this way, Arcade will help maintain a vibrant architecture, design, and arts ecosystem in the best way we know how: through journalism and publication.
