Seattle Back In The Day
Shane has a picture on his site today shot from behind the Space Needle, looking toward downtown Seattle.
Compare it to this picture I scanned yesterday from a slide I took from the Needle in September, 1974, the year we moved here.
It looks for all the world like a prairie town, with only a few “skyscraper” class buildings, and the Kingdome (just about the center of the picture) doesn’t have it’s roof on yet.
Also note that the air is clean enough on a sunny day that you can see Mt. Rainier.
