I think Seattle can boast that it has the world’s biggest Christmas tree. Alright, it’s not a “tree” per se, but there is a tree made of lights on top of Seattle’s famed Space Needle. The thought of having to hang them makes me very queasy so I try not to think about it. The Space Needle stands 605 feet tall and weighs 3,700 tons. As you might imagine, the unique structure required some creative construction techniques, including bending three 90-foot, 90,000-pound I-beams to form each leg. The Needle was built to withstand earthquakes and winds up to 200 miles per hour; in such high winds, the structure itself sways up to 1 inch per 10 mph. Three capsule elevators take you up the Needle’s legs to the Observation Deck, which is 520 feet above the ground. During the 43-second elevator ride, you will get a view through three sides and a brief introduction to the structure.
