Space Needle (Seattle, WA)


The Space Needle is the most iconic image associated with Seattle, Washington. The futuristic tower was built for the 1962 World's Fair. At the time, it was the largest structure west of the Mississippi, although it has since been usurped by the Stratosphere Resort in Las Vegas. The top of the Space Needle features an observation deck, as well as a rotating restaurant.
