West Seattle's oldest funeral home, Howden-Kennedy Funeral Home, is on the move. That's a fairly confusing statement until you factor in that an apartment developer paid over $17 million for the land that it was a part of. As part of the deal, Howden-Kennedy will have to find new digs. They plan to stay in West Seattle and will need to vacate their current location by September 1, 2013. The developer, who is building, what else, apartment buildings, paid the funeral home $5 million for property. They also paid a local car dealership $12.9 for their land. [PSBJ]
