Boy, has Seattle ever changed! I was a frequent (monthly) visitor there from about 1971-1980 and the tallest thing was the Space Needle! Is the old Olympic Hotel still there? Used to be a Westin in my day but I'm sure it's now changed. It was where I stayed and loved it. And how about Rossellini's 412? Fabulous food but I bet it's gone too!A segment of the Seattle skyline and one of the Port Terminals.

Bill: I was here for a lot of that decade (more, or, less here!). The city has changed a bit. The Olympic Hotel is still here. It's now a "Fairmont". Very nice. All of the Rossellini Restaurants are gone. My father would take me there if I was presentable.Boy, has Seattle ever changed!

This is really the nicest bank in your series. The angle of view brings out the interesting curves much better than many other pics of this bench, which I found through Google while trying to find out who that lady Susan Robert was.. (Didn't find anything about her, BTW).Susan Roberts RIP

Hi Annna T,This is really the nicest bank in your series. The angle of view brings out the interesting curves much better than many other pics of this bench, which I found through Google while trying to find out who that lady Susan Robert was.. (Didn't find anything about her, BTW).
What are all these benches ? Do they indicate someone committed suiccide there ? Or are there only there to remember a defunct who liked that shore while living ?
And I prefer the first more saturated version to the second one. What the light can do..
