I took the G Line bus to the waterfront, and walked back up along Columbia Street in downtown Seattle to take a few pictures.
The tallest building in Seattle is on Columbia Street: the 76-story Columbia Center, which rises 937 feet (286 m) and was completed in 1985.
I went back to the waterfront to watch the sun set.
Sunset is now at 4.49 pm.
Blue skies and golden leaves on the way to the G Line bus stop on 17th Avenue E and Madison Street.The view an hour or so before sunset from the Marion Street Ferry Walkway, looking north along Alaskan Way.There’s the Columbia Center, reflected on the marble wall by First Avenue.The Columbia Center (1985, 76 stories) is in the middle of the picture, with the Seattle Municipal Tower (1990, 57 stories). On the right is the Pacific Building (1971, 22 stories).A closer look at the Columbia Center.There goes the last of the leaves on the gingko tree at 215 Columbia Street. This building was originally the Seattle Chamber of Commerce Building (1924), and is now the Northwest Title Insurance Company Building (since 2007).The Net, formerly known as The Marion, is a planned high-rise office building. In its current design iteration, it is to be 36 stories tall.Six skyscrapers in one picture. Clockwise from the top right corner: the Columbia Center (1985), the Seattle Municipal Tower (1990), the F5 Tower (2017), 901 Fifth Avenue (1973), Fourth and Madison Building (2002), DocuSign Tower (1983).Buildings close to Alaskan Way by the waterfront. I like the pastel colors reflected in the window panes facing the setting sun.Sunset with the Seattle Ferry Terminal (Colman Dock, Pier 52) on the left. The ferry is the Kaleetan, getting ready to depart for Bainbridge Island.
