3 Best Landmarks in Seattle, WA

It was a nice experience, a pretty nice bar on the top of the Smith tower gives nice views, ok cocktails and some appetizers. There is always some waiting list on the top before you get seat. Count for 100$ minimum for two people (plus tickets). They also have a mini museum on the first floor, 10 minutes should be enough to see everything. I would recommend that at least as one time experience, it’s a cute place.

Absolutely incredible views and such a fun place to checkout. Stop by the little educational alcove behind check in and before going up to the top. The elevators are original (for the most part) and are really, really cool. Lastly, the restaurant/bar at the top has the opportunity to walk a full 360° around the place. The drinks are fun and unique - try the bartenders choice to add to the adventure.

Loved to see the city from above. There's no need for tickets for the observatory. It was raining and still lovely. We enjoyed a cocktail at the bar while looking out and seeing the mist come in from the Sound. The architecture is exquisite! The old elevators, the walls, even the ceiling! Fantastic.

Wow - this is what architects mean when they talk about creating Moments. The actual library services offered here are incredible, but even just wandering around the building, the way it’s laid out (and with your movement subtly or not-so-subtly guided along a particular path), is breathtaking and a singular experience. I think this must be one of the Wonders of the Public Service World, though I don’t know what the other six would be. This place makes me think it would be worth having a list. Wow. You’ve got to come see this place. It’s unlike any space Ezekiel the Hedgehog and I have been inside of. This is a 3 Michelin Star thing - like, plan a trip around this if you have to. It’s COOL.

So unreal. Probably the most beautiful library I’ve ever seen. So many floors, plenty of computers and resources. It was nice to see so many people utilizing its services. I come from a town in Florida where libraries aren’t really valued or utilized much. We probably spent close to an hour just walking around the building and appreciating the break taking architecture and design. If I was a Seattle resident I’d be here all the time.

One of the coolest, most beautiful libraries I’ve been to besides one in UNLV. Lots of floors to explore with interesting architecture. The staffs were friendly. There is a small bookstore in the front and they sell $1 - $4 books on sale. There’s old school telephones you can use for free.
