Observation tower Space Needle is the most important landmark in Seattle, as well as one of the most recognizable human-made structures in the US. It was built in 1962, as a centerpiece of that year’s World’s Fair whose theme “The Age Of Space” is reflected in the tower’s futuristic design. During the 1962 fair, more than 20 000 people per day visited the tower, and it remained a tourist hot-spot up to this day. Space Needle is going through a massive renovation process, a part of which was completed in 2018. You can now get a mesmerizing 360 view of Seattle and its surrounding mountains like it was never possible before, as the walls are now all glass from top to bottom. During the renovation, the world’s first-ever rotating glass floor was also designed, for an even more exciting and memorable experience.
