| Title | Diners at the Eye of the Needle restaurant at the top of the Space Needle, Seattle World's Fair, 1962 |
| Photographer | Milkie Studio |
| Date | 1962 |
| Caption | The Eye of the Needle Restaurant, near the top of the Space Needle on the widest part, revolves once per hour. Visitors to the Seattle World's Fair (Century 21 Exposition) could enjoy a three-course meal of steak or salmon for $6.75 while watching the changing view below. Like much of the rest of the fair, the restaurant was decorated in shades of olive, orange and gold.
In this photo, a gold-attired woman chats with a couple while a family enjoys the view at a nearby table. Elliot Bay and downtown Seattle are visible through the large windows on this hazy afternoon. |
