But the Seattle retailer’sefforts to leave Crossroads have been thwarted by Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson, who in an effort to help the downtown malls issued a moratorium limiting the size ofnew buildings downtown to 45,000 square feet. “We still very much would like to be at Gateway,” Nordstrom spokeswoman Brooke White said. “We would hope at some point the City Council and the mayorwill change the ordinance.” Winter Parking 1,014 stalls z I 3 fi 3}= Sa : PROMENADELEVEL (UPPER FLOOR) Drain on Downtown: Boyer Co. acknowledges Gateway has attracted some tenants from other parts of downtown but said filling a project entirely abandonother properties to a minimum.
