Just buy something.
This summer, for the first time, the City of Seattle banned cars in Pike Place Market
Last year (2024), some politicians warned no one will shop here anymore if it’s pedestrianized:

It’s important Pike Place pedestrianization succeeds.
The stakes are high for the future of Seattle. If this summer experiment is a success, it will help push back against pro-car politicians. Failure will make future pedestrianization efforts much harder.
So go out there and purchase something 🍏🍌🥪🎁🛍️
Good job being the local!!
