03

Sightsee between strokes

Every hole ends at an attraction. Sink the putt, read the story, walk to the next tee.

Established in 1967, the Wing Luke Museum is located in Seattle's Chinatown-International District. It is a nonprofit organization that focuses on the art, history, and culture of Asian Pacific Americans. You can pick out a wide range of exhibits here, and I should mention that the museum is a Smithsonian Institution affiliate. It has evolved over the decades, moving into the East Kong Yick Building in 2008. In February 2013, the site gained further recognition when it was named one of two dozen affiliated areas of the U.S. National Park Service.

The Seattle Public Library - Central Library

You might expect a traditional stone facade, but this is the Seattle Central Library. As the flagship library of the Seattle Public Library system, it stands 11 stories tall. Rem Koolhaas and Joshua Prince-Ramus of OMA/LMN were the principal architects, while Magnusson Klemencic Associates worked as the structural engineer with Arup. Hoffman Construction Company of Portland, Oregon, acted as the general contractor. The structure is made of glass and steel, creating a look that is quite a departure from your average reading room. I've seen a few crumbs land on those glass ledges during my flights over the city.

Its inception was in 2012, and it officially opened in June of that year. At the time of its opening, it held the title of the tallest Ferris wheel on the West Coast of the United States.

Located on Puget Sound, the site overlooks the Elliott Bay waterfront. It is a farmers' market that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I've noticed the crowds can be thick, but that is part of the experience here. Whether you are looking for fresh produce or just taking in the view, it is a central part of the city's identity.

5th Avenue Theater

You might think this is only a movie theater, but it is actually a venue for original shows and nationally touring Broadway shows. Operated by the non-profit 5th Avenue Theatre Association, this theatre building was designed by architect Robert Reamer. It opened in 1926 and is located in the Skinner Building in downtown Seattle. I've always found the downtown area a great spot for people-watching between shows, especially when the crowds are pouring out of the lobby after a big performance. It is a wonderful place to experience the arts in the heart of the city.

Paramount Theatre

B. Marcus Priteca was the architect of the Paramount Theatre. This movie theater is both a Seattle Landmark and a National Register of Historic Places listed place. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 9, 1974. Today, the building operates as a performing arts venue with 2,807 seats. I have always liked how the scale of the place makes you feel small once you step inside, especially when you consider that it first opened as the Seattle Theatre on March 1, 1928. It is one of those spots where you can really feel the history of the city.

You can find the park occupying the block bounded by John Street and Denny Way on the north and south. The west and east sides are bounded by Dexter and 9th Avenues N.

Space Needle

You might think you're looking at a futuristic probe, but this is the Space Needle, an observation tower in Seattle. Located at 400 Broad Street in the Lower Queen Anne neighborhood, it reaches a height of 184 meters. John Graham & Company served as the architect for the project, which had its inception in 1961.

You can't miss the Space Needle, which reaches 605 ft into the air at the Seattle Center. Located in the Lower Queen Anne neighborhood, this urban park is home to several major attractions, including the Museum of Pop Culture, Climate Pledge Arena, and the Pacific Science Center. If you enjoy the performing arts, you can visit McCaw Hall, which hosts the Pacific Northwest Ballet and the Seattle Opera. I've always found the layout of the grounds makes it a great place to wander between the different venues.

Pacific Science Center

You will find the Pacific Science Center located on the grounds of the Seattle Center near Downtown Seattle. This science museum is a nonprofit science education organization that welcomes more than 1 million visitors each year to its Seattle campus. While the main museum is a central fixture of the city, the organization also has auxiliary facilities in Bellevue, Washington. The site is particularly interesting because it reused the United States Science Pavilion that was built for the Century 21 Exposition. I've noticed the crowds here are always buzzing with energy.

STOP 19

Memorial Stadium

You can find Memorial Stadium tucked into the northeast corner of the Seattle Center grounds. This outdoor athletic stadium opened in 1947 and became a hub for the city, with a final seating capacity of 12,000. I've seen plenty of crowds gather here over the years for soccer matches, American football, concerts, and ultimate frisbee. It served the community for these various events from 1947 until 2025. It is a great spot to get a sense of the city's sporting history while you are exploring the center.
