This event spotlights 10 landmarks in the greater Seattle area over the past 100 years. In honor of the Seattle Design Festival's 10 year anniversary, we've selected one landmark per decade over the past 10 decades, giving us a total of 10 landmarks to feature for this year's event. Check out the map below to see all of the featured landmark locations, and to learn more about each landmark's inspiring history and design. Our goal is to introduce and educate our community about the rich history that exists in our neighborhoods, including how they have been shaped and continue to evolve.
