SPACE NEEDLE

The Boeing plant is located in Everett, Washington. It is recognized as the worlds largest building by the Guinness Book of World Records. It is also known for being so massive that it generates it’s own weather patterns.

Microsoft was founded in 1975 in New Mexico, however, in January 1979 it moved to Bellevue, Washington. For the final time in Feb 1986, it is relocated to Redmond, Washington; where it is still located today. Microsoft proudly boasts 42,012 Washingtonians employed at this time.

Construction crews broke ground on the Space Needle on April 17, just one year and four days before the opening of the 1962 Seattle World’s Fair, called “Century 21.” It was a remarkable feat to complete this one-of-a-kind, 605-foot tower. All kinds of famous folks have enjoyed the Space Needle, including entertainers like Elvis Presley, Walt Disney, John Travolta, Mike Myers and Bono; royalty such as Prince Philip of Great Britain and the Shah and Empress of Iran; presidents Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard M. Nixon and Jimmy Carter; and astronauts John Glenn and Neil Armstrong.
