In Seattle you simply can’t skip the Central Public Library – a modern architectural marvel of glass grids, unusual shapes, and a “book spiral” that climbs four stories. Stroll over to Pike Place Market to visit the original Starbucks and play catch with a fishmonger. In the heart of the city lies Chihuly Garden and Glass, which will dazzle you with its colorful and delicate works. Glide to the top of the Space Needle for panoramic views of the surrounding mountain ranges and Puget Sound.

From industrial sludge to family fun: this urban park features an industrial plant-turned kiddie play area as well as a beautiful lake and picnic area.
Our visit was one of those “while we’re in the neighborhood” things, and I’m so glad we followed through. The site is an abandoned gasification plant on the north shore of Lake Union, with a stunning view of the Seattle skyline and a great perspective on the pleasure craft and sea planes to be found on the lake. There’s a playground, extensive grounds and a kite-flying hill all overlooking the city, Queen Anne, and Capitol Hill. There were people of all ages enjoying the park while we were there. It’s a great site for picnicking, or for just chilling on the hillside. A word of advice—watch your step, because geese LOVE the place there are goose droppings everywhere.. Words don’t do justice to what a neat place this is!

This large, recreational lake is great for renting an electric boat, kayaking and admiring the Seattle skyline. The new South Lake Union Park is open and easily accessible from downtown by Streetcar.
On Lake Union not only was "Sleepless In Seattle" was filmed on a house boat but plenty to watch by the lake front as well. From here Kenmore Air with their seaplanes depart and a company called Argosy Tours depart from here also. On the waters edge is a museum of History and Industry. Plenty to enjoy or just seat down and watch the world go by.
