Seattle Public Library – Central. An Architectural Wonder and Minutes from Issaquah

Posted by Larry Cragun

As promised, here is a post on the Seattle Public Library-Central. You think libraries are boring. Not this one. It is a must see even if you don’t intend on looking at a book. Located just minutes away from Issaquah. These are the pictures we took on our Valentines Day visit to Seattle. It attracts 8000 + visitors a day, but seems so big you seem almost alone, 362,987 Sq feet. It cost nearly $170 million to build and opened May 23, 2004.

Below are the hallways to the meeting rooms-red walls-red floors-red ceiling. Interesting experience.
