A little more than a month after Easy Street Records closed its Queen Anne location, Silver Platters owner Mike Batt announced that his Queen Anne store is also closing, according a The Seattle Times blog on Wednesday, Feb. 27.
The store will relocate its inventory to a new, slightly smaller location in SODO, at 2930 First Ave. S., on June 10 and open shortly after.
Batt, who has owned the Queen Anne location since 2007, cited rising commercial real estate rates for the move. He will have a five-year lease, with a “significantly lower rate,” at the SODO store.
