The former Rainier Brewery alongside Interstate 5 in Seattle is undergoing yet another transformation in its long history. The old brew kettles are moving out and the spaces in the sprawling landmark are being renovated into 70 "live/work" lofts for regional artists. Conan Gale is the project site manager for the Arts Brewery and an advocate for affordable spaces for Seattle artists. Conan Gale talks with Dave Beck about his long time dream of remaking the brewery into a thriving creative community.
