Originally a symbol of the Age of Space, it provides panoramic views of the surrounding area, including downtown Seattle, Mount Rainier, Puget Sound, and the Olympic and Cascade Mountains. Known for its futuristic design during its construction, the structure has since undergone various renovations to enhance its safety and aesthetic appeal, including the addition of a revolving glass floor at its observatory level, offering visitors a breathtaking 360-degree view of the cityscape. ***
