Seattle at Night


Seattle's downtown, viewed from the 50-year-old Space Needle.

The Seattle Center Monorail tracks show up well against the streetlights down 5th Avenue.  Shamefully, Seattle wasted $124 million between 1997 and 2008 only studying the feasibility of building a larger monorail network.  If they'd instead just gone about building track, they could have completed 6mi of the network (using construction costs from 1961 inflated to modern dollars).
