pictures of you : smith tower

Smithtower Kitchen2

It seems that everyone knows someone (who knows someone) who has had the good fortune of being invited to the swank apartment at the top of the Smith Tower. They tell you of how insanely cool it was to squeeze into the illuminated globe from a narrow catwalk and ladder, and all that you can do is drool and wish that they’d taken pictures or thought to let you tag along.*

This is why the batch of pictures that showed up on the Seattle LJ community today are so thrilling. Sure, they’re PR photos from the design firm [castanes] that turned the one-time water tower into the city’s most coveted real estate, but it’s still pretty great to have a look inside.

See more, and chime in with your stories about the apartment [seattle.lj]

    Hell, I was up there myself last year. [mb]

    Couldn’t take any pictures at the time though.

    Oh, right. I knew that I’d read that story somewhere. Edited to include your link in the main post.
