*** About Space Needle: The Space Needle, one of the most recognizable landmarks in the United States, dominates this artwork with its futuristic, yet nostalgic silhouette. Erected for the 1962 World’s Fair in Seattle, this 605-foot-tall tower was designed by Edward E. Carlson and architect John Graham Jr. The Needle's design was inspired by the idea of a "flying saucer" and it quickly became a symbol of innovation and the Space Age. Today, it not only serves as a key component of Seattle’s skyline but also as a hub for thousands of visitors who ride its elevators up to its observation deck for panoramic views of downtown Seattle, Mount Rainier, Puget Sound, and the surrounding islands.
