One major missing thing that could have been well animated is the decorations they put up on the ceiling of the needle for all the helicopters and such. It's been all sorts of things. Great work tho.

[@timmillan6701]

I did have a chance to dine there when they had the revolving restaurant at the top. The food was super expensive, and not particularly great. However, the experience was well worth it. One of my favorite things was kids putting cards/papers on the stationary ridge - as the restaurant revolved, people would take the card when it got to their table and write down where they traveled from to get there and maybe a short comment, then replace it on the sill. By the time it got back to the original kid/person, there would be a bunch of signatures and messages from much of the restaurant - representing travelers from around the world. A great tradition and fine souvenir of the experience. Iconic structure

[@randallstewart1224]

I was in high school during the Seattle Fair and visited the Fair many times. I never ate at the restaurant during the fair(or went up the observation deck) because the waiting line were like Disneyland. Around 1970, an old college friend visited and wanted to go, so we had dinner at the Space Needle. Expensive, if not breathtaking, and the food was mediocre. Doing the full spin twice over drinks, food and dessert, watching the sun set into night made it a memorable occasion anyway. The reason they pulled out the restaurant during conversion was it was a money pit for whoever took on the job. No takers.

Great video. I was seven years old when I visited the Worlds Fair in 1962. I lived in Oregon so it seemed like an all day trip to get to Seattle.. The Monorail was cool but it was the Space Needle I loved the most. It really did seem like I was in outer space. As a very special treat in 1970 I ate in the restaurant and was shocked at the prices. Coffee was 50 cents while most restaurants were only charging a dime. My coke was a dollar. But it was the view I was there for. The tables moved around so the view was ever changing. In 2000 I ate dinner in the CN tower in Toronto which is a much taller tower. The Toronto Blue Jays were playing a game near the base of the tower so we could see the tiny looking players. Great memories.

The vivid memory of the rotating restaurant was the view of the plentiful brick buildings in Seattle. My dad said the view was similar of what existed in East Coast (US) cities of that era. The other memory was at the ground floor of the Space Needle, with the gigantic sized bolts and nuts seen as foundation anchors for the tower. My older brother questioned about the size of the wrench it took to tighten the nuts to the bolts.

[@Thetankracer]

Interesting!

[@shaggybreeks]

Can confirm this from memory that goes back to the fair. FWIW, although there were lots of people in the queue to go up, it wasn't a "long" queue. It was in an area surrounded by ahandrail, only about 20x20 feet in size. The handrail guided the people back and forth, so that the "line" actually folded over on itself several times. I thought it was a pretty clever and simple solution. For the queue at the Science Center, the buildings surrounded a large shallow pool. There were several islands in the pool, and groups of people would occupy each island. As one group reached the entrance to the first building, they would empty off the island, then the next group would step onto it. The line moved by groups of people, rather than individuals.

[@Enzi_Meteori_902]

It would be risky. Such renovation has to be done carefully. Since it's glass, building would be impossible unless you stand on the outer ring. Even if they can make a restaurant, it will be rotating. And some food or stuff will be rolling around. And people from the outside won't have the ability to go in because it rotates. And since it is built on the glass floor, it has a likelihood of shattering. And that could cause injuries

Makes me think of a new Where In the World is Carmen Sandiego episode "Space Needle Lost Out Seattle" Lynne Thigpen: The Space Needle is an observation tower in Seattle, Washington, United States. Considered to be an icon of the city, it has been designated a Seattle landmark. Located in the Lower Queen Anne neighborhood, built in the Seattle Center for the 1962 World's Fair, which drew over 2.3 million visitors. The Space Needle is the tallest structure west of the Mississippi River, standing at 605 ft (184 m). The tower is 138 ft (42 m) wide, weighs 9,550 short tons (8,660 metric tons), built to withstand winds of up to 200 mph (320 km/h) and earthquakes of up to 9.0 magnitude, as strong as the 1700 Cascadia earthquake. The Space Needle features an observation deck 520 ft (160 m) above ground, providing views of the downtown Seattle skyline, the Olympic and Cascade Mountains, Mount Rainier, Mount Baker, Elliott Bay, and various islands in Puget Sound. Visitors can reach the top of the Space Needle by elevators, which take 41 seconds. On April 19, 1999, the city's Landmarks Preservation Board designated the tower a historic landmark. However, that changed all that when Kneemoi flew over Seattle, targets the Space Needle, zaps with her tractor beam and flies away. What would Seattle be like without the Space Needle? Your mission gumshoes, round up Kneemoi behind bars, return the Space Needle to Seattle, then bring Carmen Sandiego to justice. I made this as an example.

I vaguely remember Frasier & Niles getting stuck on the monorail as Frasier missed his own celebration day at the Space Needle.

[@Randomm23_VR]

I went to Seattle about a year ago and remembered this video. The space needle was exactly like what you showed in this video.

I found your channel just now and I am so delighted. I will have something to watch everyday when I want to take a break from my work. Thanks for creating and sharing these videos. 🙂

Way back in 1973, I had dinner at the top of the Space Needle. They had a wonderful restaurant on the revolving deck. Booties lined the outer edge. They warned everyone not to put belongings on the ledge, or they could lose them.

I actually looked up how long it takes for the space needle’s revolving glass floor to do one rotation and it takes 47 minutes to do one rotation

[@freezerburnpunk2]

They can actually change the speed, from 30 minutes to an hour, and they can change the direction of the rotation as well. ☺️

[@gregghanson6095]

In the early days, the revolving restaurant at the top was timed to do one rotation during your dinner.

@@drewconway7135 actually, you couldn't feel it moving and you got a 360 view of the city. It was wonderful.

[@freezerburnpunk2]

@@drewconway7135 Yeah, one day while I was up there, the floor stopped for like 5 minutes and then went the opposite direction. I had quite a few people come up to me asking why it happened, but I'm pretty sure it was a kid who found the control panel and stopped it and then a security guard turned it on the opposite way.

[@ronaldbrouhard1247]

There WAS a Restoraunt on the rotating floor. It was one VERY cool place to eat. During the 1964 Earthquake, the Space Needle swayed 12 yep TWELVE feet off center (24 ft total). There were some injuries & lotsa broken dishes. The Space Needle didn't even have cracks in the floors. Great Engineering! I believe after the World's Fair ended we went up for 50 cents.

[@UniverHole_]

WAAAAAAY back in 1961 I watched the needle being built, as I worked about 4 blocks from it and drove by everyday going to work. They dug one hell of a hole and filled with concrete for the base, weighs more than the upper part, and a friend of mine worked on it as a laborer for quite some time, and yes we rode the monorail from down town and went up to the observation floor before the fair opened and spent a couple of days at the fair....

As a child I had my first trip up the elevators. As a teenager, my first time I got high (well, among the first few, first hashish exp) was up in the space needle. During my 20s I had a girlfriend who worked their, so I was able to go up a lot. After moving away in 2000 I infrequently still love seeing my city from up there. Thanks for the incredible work and depiction of the amazing structure. ❤

I went in the early 90’s as a middle schooler. Loved it. Was always fascinated by the “rotating” or rather the restaurant that you rotated around. Somewhere I probably still have the pennys that we paid a quarter to have pressed into mementos from the trip with one of those crank machines.
