This is a great park with the original "gas works" still in place. It's right on the banks of Lake Union. It's a great place for a picnic that most tourists don't see.

You kind of have to see the Space Needle when you're in Seattle. It's pretty pricey to go to the top and the views are great, but the structure just isn't that tall. For a panorama of the city go to the skybridge in the Columbia Tower downtown.
