i still remember the 1st time seeing the needle! i was on a ferry from bremerton to seattle in 1975 and i said to my mom WHAT'S THAT SHE SAID THAT'S THE SPACENEEDLE from that day forward the needle has been my fave man made structure in all the world! it's very satisfying to see the NEEDLE get an upgrade to make it a state of the art experience for all that visits there! i have yet to go since the renovation thou! i will! i 've been to the needle several times in my lifetime thou and every time it was a very cool experience!!!
I was six when the Seattle Worlds Fair (Century 21) opened and we had a meal their (my sister left her glass(?) on the window sill and some time later, there it was coming towards us). ;-)
I'm glad to see this, and I do hope to visit Seattle and its needle. I also have to ask, if we can have so much collaboration to make a glass floor rotate, why can't we get the powers-that-be together to make housing affordable? I have heard horror stories from longtime Seattle residents about the mass and rapid skyrocketing of housing in the city to luxury prices only. It's all because nationwide policy has been redone to make housing just an investment for already wealthy people get mega-rich -- no longer with any regard to meeting people's needs.
Really!!!!!!!!!!! How about using alot of that money to build affordable houses for those that NEED a stable place for a home instead of a tent under a bridge, or a walmart parking lot or something??!!! More than tossing some nickels and dimes in a bucket in front of a Walgreens at Christmas time. The salvation army steals alot of that for their own little selves. Helping someone else to get stable again and be someone is much more productive and rewarding, than building a piece of junk for wealthy people to stand on and look down at the world! If people like these idiots would put that money to helping each other, so much would change for the BETTER of all!!! Greedy bastards deserve NO-THING at all!!! 👿👿👿
@@QiuyuanChenRyan916 I believe jonwright was using a wider definition of "feed the homeless," which meant make food, (and other necessities, particularly shelter) more affordable. At least that's my guess. In this same way we use the phrase "farmers feed the world" without it meaning they give food away free to everybody.
Just goes to show what human beings can achieve. Absolutely phenomenal.
I am just one of the 60,000,000 people who have visited the Space Needle...1994. Seattle is a beautiful city.

If I'm hearing correctly, the rotating restaurant is gone?
T'airn'KA no, the glass ground still moves.
ground? what ground? the ground is 500 feet down from where the restaurant once was!! it's a glass floor ! come on now smarten up!! lol
They recently opened a prepaid dining lounge called "The Loupe".
No more outside? When I was a kid you could go outside before the cage. Just the rails. Hanging over and looking down....
Can’t feed the homeless but can make a floor rotate

if food is that easy to obtain what is the point to stay off the street.
