The Puget Sound Business Journal has been running a reader poll to name “Seattle’s most respected brand.”
The finalists are Windermere Real Estate and Chateau Ste. Michelle.
Other contenders included Nordstrom, Canlis, Columbia Bank, the Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Starbucks, the Perkins Coie law firm, and Northwest Harvest.
But where were Dick’s Drive-Ins, Pyramid Ales, Fantagraphics, Big John’s PFI, Sub Pop, or Tim’s Cascade Chips?
Oh right. They’re not freakin’Â upscale enough.
Then forget it.
