Seattle - Smith Tower

Smith Tower in Pioneer Square is Seattle's oldest skyscraper. Built in 1914, it is 484 ft (148 m) tall and has 38 floors.

 

It was the tallest building west of the Mississippi River until the completion of the Kansas City Power & Light Building in 1931.

 

It remained the tallest building on the West Coast for almost 50 years until the Space Needle overtook it in 1962.
