Centers are the hallmark of VISION 2040 and its Regional Growth Strategy. Designated regional growth centers have been identified for housing and employment growth, as well as for regional funding. Regional manufacturing/industrial centers are locations for increased employment.
PSRC periodically tracks the progress and development of designated regional growth centers. See Puget Sound Milestones: Central Puget Sound Regional Growth Centers (2002). The report includes information on trends in regional growth centers, as well as manufacturing/industrial centers.
