According to a press release, Fremont, Wallingford and Pioneer Square were recently added to the Department of Economic Development campaign "Only in Seattle," which seeks to feature and help promote unique neighborhood businesses. The campaign, which is now in its third year, already features Ballard.

Mayor Mike McGinn also announced "Only in Seattle Sundays," a special once-a-month discount for select businesses in a single neighborhood. The event is to help encourage people to discover and support local businesses.

The first Only in Seattle Sunday will be held in Fremont. People will be able to eat brunch at Markettime Foods, shop with a 10 percent discount at evo and Bitters Co., and get a buy one get one free discount at Pete's Fremont Fire Pit. Coupons can be found at www.onlyinseattle.org/sundays

Only in Seattle Sunday will take place in Belltown in August, and Wallingford in September, with other neighborhoods to be featured in following months.

Ballard Businesses featured in the Only in Seattle campaign are Bop Street Records, Bastille Cafe & Bar, Blackbird and the Quilting Loft.
