New Heights: Transforming Seattle’s Iconic Space Needle

The Images Publishing Group | 2024/02

We set out to make a new form of observation architecture that would encompass the vast vistas of the region in ways that were outside the realm of the predictable, the safe, and the expected.

New Heights: Transforming Seattle’s Iconic Space Needle is a book about the $100m transformation of Seattle’s iconic Space Needle. It documents the latest chapter in the Space Needle’s history with an in-depth look at the innovations, challenges, and triumphs—from the first sketches to the complex project delivery—as seen through the eyes of the architects who guided its creation.
