Do you want to know how to get the best view of the Seattle Space Needle? Take a seaplane tour! There are several outfits that depart from Lake Union. Via seaplane you can view amazing homes, the urban and suburban landscape, Puget Sound, and all that Seattle has to offer, including an up close & personal view of the Space Needle. And no seaplane tour would be complete without stopping by Joey's for a cocktails on their deck overlooking Lake Union. It's all worth your while!

The Seattle Center, home of the 1960's World Fair, which launched the famous Space Needle landmark and ever troublesome monorail system, is one of the most visited attractions in Seattle for locals and tourists alike. What is witnessed here is an ever complicated and "open to interpretation" glimpse into an envisioned future of prosperity and innovation.
