This is like watching Sim City or Cities: Skylines. awesome video.
I was about to comment that. haha
ditto.
LOL, same, only in UHD!
First thing I thought!!!
Wow, Seattle had perfect weather for 3 straight years...
LOL....they edited that out!
enzochiapet it’s pretty sunny here most of the time... I’ve lived here over 5 years
T L what Seattle are you eating. The only time we have good weather is when it’s quarantine
Lol
@@bagua465 lollllll
Fascinating to see a city like a living, evolving creature.
Evolving into a homeless encampment.
Can't believe I watched this six years ago. Time flies faster in my life than in these time lapse videos.
I live in Spokane & because I am a Northwesterner I am familiar with Seattle. And to watch that growth in such a short time period is very eye-opening. Not only does is capture the fact that the city is being taken care of & it is absolutely 1 of the most beautiful cities in the world. But it also shows us how quick change can happen & that is a lil scary! I see it here in Spokane as well. Sometimes I am shocked by the changes & other times I'm a lil peeved cause I don't like what usually comes with those changes. Like over population & all the fun stuff that comes with that. I really don't think I need to make a list cause we all already know it. So that scares me a lil as a community member. But on the other hand seeing the growth also makes me proud because we are creating easier living & jobs for the ppl. Oh man, there r so many Pros & Cons that we could discuss but Id rather not cause it's already been said. But I do wanna say thank you for sharing those still shots with us like u did. It is pretty awesome to see the growth in that way. Makes me wanna tear up a lil cause it truly is powerful!!!
videos like this is why every other word i say is time-lapse. Greetings from a small daily time-lapser from Bellingham Washington
Thank you for this. I left Seattle in 2014 so it's really nice to see this. :)
I left in 2008 and am in shock
@@susien7323 Aww man, you really missed alot didn't ya
What an amazing beautiful city wish I lived there in America
Obaid Khan it's not affordable to live in Seattle anymore. I lived there until 2010. We had a beautiful, 2 bedroom 2 bathroom 1000 square foot apartment and it was only $1600 per month. These days a studio apartment (meaning no bedroom at all) is $2000 per month at the same apartment complex. This used to be a city of artists and now it's a gentrified city of tech developers.
I grew up in seattle, it has grown so much it's insane. #stillsupportinglocalbusinesses
Amazing for one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It will be awesome to see the 'completed' video and see what the city will look like in 50 years!
Absolutely amazing, i was glued to it. Makes me feel a little insignificant in this world with everything going on that we dont even realise. Love it.
This is incredible, thank you!
Beautiful sound track as well, now many more changes in the works, water front renewal with the i-99 bridge coming down.
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen, and I had my sound up before I started the video and enjoyed the music at a higher-than-normal volume while watching - which made the experience even better.
Excellent work, and thank you for not including foreboding music or sound. This isn't a negative thing. People build, and it's a good thing. :)
Completely agree.
Simcity in real life.
Thanks for this amazing work! Amost feels like the GoT opening sequences. As a Seattlite commuting through this area and living in Queen Anne, we don't get to see the full scope of the transformation of SLU; it's breathtaking to see. I love how you've painstakingly smoothed the progression as well. Thanks again!
Wow super cool video! Great idea. Thanks for doing it. Really enjoyed watching it.
Hey Ricardo, amazing job. What a cool way to see the progress made in our killer city. Congrats on the video. Keep up the good work!
Great job on the video. The growth is awesome but Seattle has barely invested in its very outdated infrastructure. Good thing the traffic was edited out because it would be there constantly. The housing built in Seattle is either low income housing for tax credits or high end luxury for max profit. Middle class workers aren't welcome there.
Seattle, has invested more in its infrastructure than almost any other city in the USA recently. It just passed a $40 billion dollar transit program to help ease congestion over the next few decades.
If only that $ had been committed to the city 20-30 years ago. Not sure everyone could have seen it coming though.
hahaha, I love your sarcasm.
Jeff Smith they might not have been able to predict this, but even in 1990 Microsoft was huge and it would be easy to predict other tech would be attracted to the city because of them.
M_Atenza04 yeah and it’s the heroine capital of the us and maybe even the world. What a dirty place
So amazing!
+Your -- for your Second Coming you should touch down in Seattle. I'm sure you can think of something dramatic.
Beautiful! Great job with stabilization and color!
Wow. This is incredible.
It would be great to see an update of this video.
This is absolutely amazing, what a brilliant idea.
Cool to see, thanks!!
Great work Ricardo!
Awesome!
Nice, keep up the awsome work
great job! Thanks!
Iv been to Seattle one time and I remember everything, a lot of it looks the same.
Wow :0 Great job man and keep doing same. It will be very valuable in 10 years!
Great work, buddy!
seattle is gorgeous. i've got roots in atlanta for the moment but seattle's at the top of that list of places (in the US at least) that I would move to in a heartbeat if the right opportunity presented itself... and i could convince my husband that it's not really as cold as he thinks.
It's not ever cold, at least compared to most of the east coast and midwest! It can be dark and overcast for more of the year than most places. But that's a good time to explore libraries and coffee shops and other indoor institutions - the worst thing people can do is sit around at their home every time it's dark. Also a bonus - when it is sunny after a lot of grey, *everyone* is outside and in a good mood. We may have less sun, but we appreciate it when it comes out :)
EDIT: Just looked it up out of curiosity. Seattle actually has more sunshine hours in the summer months (June to August) than Atlanta, but also a third of the sunshine hours in winter (November to January). Our summers are beautiful, but I know it can be hard for newcomers to get used to the winters. Worth it though.
Nice!
Nice
4👍👌👌likes
This is really cool! It's crazy how much Seattle is changing. I don't go to Seattle very much (there's no need to for me), but every time I do everything looks different.
Nice job!
At first I thought that the weather up there was always horrible until the end of the video explains the smoothing :D
so cool
The colors get warmer in summer
Brilliant! Jeff Johnson
Freakin awesome
Cha-Ching! There is so much money in Seattle right now. Hopefully the current tech frenzy will hold steady for quite some time
Very cool. :)
its like mold growing on a piece of bread.
condo cancer
Funny how all of the people who can't afford to live in Seattle, hate Seattle, but the people who actually live in Seattle, love Seattle. Must sucks to be poor and undereducated.
go fuck yourself
I've lived in Seattle and it's really great there. I love the city itself, but there are other aspects of the city which I'm not so fond of (Furries, Antifa)
Move to Buffalo or Detroit if you love stagnation and rot.
Very cool and amazing! However, also scary - how much urban growth can Seattle sustain.
I mean how much urban growth will continue at this fast pace. Is there an end in sight? And can Seattle support it remaining the city it is now?
it already can't sustain what it has
Yo thats awesome
a lot of growth in the South Lake Union and Downtown areas where you knew it was going on.
All Leased, anything for sale is $$$$+
If anyone didn't pay attention to the ending of the video for the music used it's: *Me and My Rocket - Chill Carrier* or just search through the 200+ comments below lol.
What building was getting work done on it on Denny at 1:30 in the video?
Dope
Nice Job. I grew up in Seattle but grateful to now view it from afar. What is the music bed used?
Sound like Twin Peaks or some similar theme from movies of 80's - 90's in the start of video?!😁
it grows quick =)
Thanks for the infotmation
You deserve more subs
If it's 360 pano shots, why not make it a 360 video timelapse and let the viewer pan around?
Resolution and video quality is lower on youtube right now when you do 360 videos
I think it is perfect the way it is. And if they did video the quality wouldn't be as good or detailed & it would probably be more time consuming to put together. So I think this is just fine & absolutely Awesome!!!
It would've taken less effort but then the streets would be hard to label. They can still make one though
Yes, check it out here!

Thank you!
What the setting on the camera, and how did you manage the time to make it?
Is there a 2022 version of this?
It’s like city skylines
Whats the music
...to watch how quickly the high-rises go up is almost surreal.
2:38 its actually blake Island at the top, vashon is off to the left
no snow? wow
Toby Crook it doesn’t snow here in the city except for a freak thing every 10 years or so
OOOOH ASMR!!!!!!
Where’s the new updated video?
This project is truly incredible. Beautiful work, I'm glad this transformation is being captured. That said, the change this video is capturing utterly breaks my heart. Every day more and more the city I grew up in and love so deeply is being consumed by one monster corporation and entitled, overpaid techbros who don't know the city as anything else than the company town to which their relo was paid. This video shows the LQA apartment building that I was suddenly priced out of by hundreds of dollars, and the historic houses in my neighborhood torn down and replaced with ugly, boxy new construction. The soul of this town is under fire, but I look forward to seeing the ways in which it rebuilds in coming years. And whatever unsuspecting city Uncle Jeff chooses to build the swimming pool for Scrooge McDucking at HQ2, I hope they batten down the freaking hatches, plan for affordable housing for their existing residents, and set up a webcam on their most iconic structure.
Atlanta successfully hosts HQ for the CDC, CNN, Georgia Pacific, Coca Cola, Bell South, Southern Company, Delta Airlines, etc.
Amazon will be a pimple on its butt. Over-paid dorks will blend in, have to scramble for dates in a sophisticated and well-integrated city.
The cold rain, gray skies, comically over-priced housing and provincialism of Seattle will be distant memories. The housing market is much much better in the 404 area code. Dramatically better. Better schools, weather and proximity to more of the US than the remote rain-soaked NW corner. Close to....Idaho.
Lol.
Welcome to Atlanta tech bros. Good luck -
This.
Born and raised native from the Rainier Valley/Cap Hill.
This city and the soul that made it special many decades ago is just being eroded away. The charm of what makes up a Seattleite has dramatically changed. And the culture is becoming of what is more of a dog-eat-dog mentality, fighting for whatever resources are available to afford up here.
While excited for how my city will change. I honestly cry inside seeing the ugliness that's showing from how it expands.
SunshineLaw Fan no one is here giving a shit about Atlanta
Born here myself. I still have hope.
Oh look there I am 😁
Member Sim City?
Hi Ricardo! I'm doing a project for affordable housing in Seattle, and I'm a UW student. I was wondering if I could use about 7-8 seconds of this clip with due credits to you for the same?
I want time lapse from 60 s until right now
wow loving the new cities skylines update
Very nice work but it makes this place look way nicer than it is!
I should do one for my city too. It's growing so fast now ( I think close to 15% per year -just my guess. )
Where do you live? If they have a nice webcam like this one, I'd be happy to help! Ricardo
why were the roads empty?
New Highways or fast time lapse makes the cars disappear.
song?
Says at the end of the video - Me and My Rocket - Chill Carrier
darude - sandstorm
Too repetitive.
Great Video. Buildings popping up everywhere, what a transformation. Go Seattle!
What Cities: Skylines mod is this? I need to download it. 😂
I am DEFINITELY moving there..
nice work. hope cameras were a little better.
It's a 8283x1080 time-lapse video, how big are your cameras? :-)
So it’s like any other major us city.
You have no idea unless you live here, which obviously, you don't.
calicorock I have owned a place in Seattle for 20 years.
Yeah but city growth changes. From 2010 - 2016 the population has climbed from 608,000 to 704,000 (It's probably at 730,000 right now) This is with little to no annexations, just pure growth.
From 1990 - 2010 the population climbed from 515,000 to 608,000. That's a 20 year growth that occured in this decade in only 6 years. It's one of the fastest growing major cities in the country.
Not exactly like any other major US city: www.seattletimes.com/business/real-estate/seattle-has-most-cranes-in-the-country-for-2nd-year-in-a-row-and-lead-is-growing/
One problem - We can’t see the Space Needle! It needs a ‘selfie’!
Looks like Sim City
Wow, Seattle is really keeping pace with SF and LA (and Calgary). I had no idea there was this many projects ongoing.
Is Seattle a ghost town?
I go there every week and it has changed SO MUCH. It was a place full of abandoned or old buildings and now it's full of nice, modern buildings.
I feel like playing games City Skylines watching this...
Ehh... Why are there almost no cars on the streets?
I live in seattle
Nine tailed fox Well goody on you!
Why there are no signs of people, cars,boats,....? Is it a time-lapse or an animation?
Elliott Ave. - two t's
Ups! My bad! Unfortunately I cannot change it on the video :-(
Wonderful video! Thank you!
When you watch ants build a home
Very nice but there is no way this is from photos at 10-minute intervals. The interval has to be much longer.
Crzy,
Sorry if it was not clear, the camera takes a photo every 10 minutes during daylight, but I only used the ones at 1030am and 230pm, for over 3 years, roughly two thousand photos.

Ricardo
It DOES look like Sim City
Used to live there, and passed through the other day. U-Village was so tightly packed with people and shops so close together with no parking, it gave me 2 panic attacks. The Ave used to have many interesting shops and residents, it's completely dead now. No more underground nightclub or gargoyle shop. The coffee shop where Nirvana signed with Sub Pop is dwarfed by a large Starbucks across the street. When Seattle Center lost its bubble elevator and then its amusement park it was an omen.
Broadway used to be so wild, free, and openly gay. People had *style* on both the Ave and Broadway. Now everyone dresses and looks the same. No more colorful mohawks or that one guy who used to always dress exactly like a greaser from the 1950's. No more cheap movies at cool little theaters. No more funky colored houses. Even Cornish (arts college) appears to have faded into the cement landscape with clones for students. Heartbreaking. There's gentrification and then there's extinction...
tl;dr I don't like change
Anyone else thinking Silicon Valley first few secs too?
Yeah it's great looking at it on UA-cam, but if you live here it's hell. Housing prices are so fucking high. A little one bedroom shack will cost you upward of $2000 a month. It's truly madness.
No wonder with all the tech companies where you can easily earn 6 digits as a graduate.
Very interesting and cool by why all panning? Why not stick the camera in one place and watch that place change over time?
You mislabeled Blakely Island as Vashon... Geography matters!
You mean Blake Island. Blakely Island is in the San Juans. Geography matters.
Touché!
