 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and neither Earwig nor I found any significant copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:27, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't find the hook hooky at all. You have quite a long article here; can you suggest some other interesting alts? Yoninah (talk) 21:49, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Alright, here's some interesting hooks that I lifted from the article, ranked in order of preference.  Sounder Bruce  01:08, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT1: ...that the $2.3 billion Spring District in Bellevue, Washington is the second largest construction project in the Puget Sound region? (Cited at the end of lead; PSBJ)
 * ALT2: ...that the development of the Spring District in Bellevue, Washington led to two real estate developers funding different sets of city council candidates? (Cited in "Opposition and controversy" subsection; The Seattle Times)
 * ALT3: ...that REI will move their headquarters by 2020 to the Spring District in Bellevue, Washington? (Cited in the "Future" subsection; Bellevue Reporter)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thank you, ALT1 is definitely hookier. Hook ref verified and cited inline. Rest of review per Cwmhiraeth. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 15:30, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
