“I sat in my senior English classroom on the third floor of my high school — Go, Queen Anne Grizzlies! — and watched the Space Needle get taller and taller,” wrote Sue Kassa.

Merna Roberts shared this. “My apartment on Eastlake Avenue in Seattle gave me a complete view of the construction of the fair grounds and Space Needle. I couldn’t wait to get home from work each day to check the progress.”
