June 19, 2020
To support local businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Issaquah is partnering with the Downtown Issaquah Association to launch a pilot project that opens vehicle travel lanes on Front and Alder streets for outdoor dining, as restaurants’ indoor capacities are limited.

Starting June 26, the Front Street Streatery will be open from 2 p.m. Fridays to 10:30 p.m. Saturdays. During these times, Front Street (from Dogwood to Sunset), as well as Alder (from First Place to First Avenue) will be closed to vehicular traffic, and drivers should take alternate routes.
The Front Street Streatery will take place for two weeks, with the potential for extensions through the end of September – or when businesses are allowed to re-open at full capacity – whichever comes first.
