Space Needle and Olympic Sculpture Park

Our next destination was the Space Needle, Seattle's iconic building, the Eiffel Tower of the Rainy City.
Buildt for the 1962 World's Fair, it stands at 605 ft ( 184m), topped with a flying- saucer-ish observation deck at 520ft ( 158m).  You'll get a panoramic view from the 360 degrees viewing area.  However, on our visit, it was a foggy morning, and we could not take nice, sharp photos.
