It’s called the Left Coast for a reason.

Mayor de Blasio gave a fawning shout-out to Seattle for leading the way on progressive issues, during a meeting Friday at City Hall of like-minded lefty elected officials and advocates from around the country.

The northwest city recently approved raising its minimum wage to $15 by 2017.

De Blasio has urged Albany to hike the state’s minimum wage from the current $8 to $10.10 — and to give individual cities an option to take it up even higher.

“Seattle, I’m going tip my cap,” the mayor told the Local Progress National Convening.

“I hope you appreciate that we bow before you here in the largest city in the country, and we look with great respect at what you’ve achieved.”

The mayor also said that naysayers aren’t necessarily opposed to the ideology of progressive causes, they’re often allies who have simply grown cynical over time.

“Sometimes we don’t experience as much support as we’d like — not because the people don’t agree, not because they don’t need this change — because they’ve heard those voices telling them it can’t happen,” he said.

While the mayor made no mention of police-community relations, City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito continued expressing her frustration with a Staten Island grand jury’s failure to indict a cop in the death of Eric Garner.

“I had hoped that we were going to get an indictment, and when we didn’t I took it much harder than I thought,” she said at the meeting.
