Thank you. Have been enjoying the "nostalgia trip" back to the World's Fair days where I worked at the Space Needle as a Security Guard. Crowd control was unbelievable. But we had the pleasure of escorting several VIP's up the special elevator from the lower level. Elvis Presley, John Glenn. John Wayne. Many others. (Even some relatives, oh oh!) It was a great year. Thanks to Jim Mandes for the job while I was attending the Univ of Wash. Tony B. Great Website. Thank you. Have been enjoying the “nostalgia trip” back to

My bad. Incidentally, I found myself standing at this exact spot yesterday morning by pure happenstance and got a big kick out of it. I like Fischer Plaza, but it ruins this view of the needle which made me sad. You are absolutely right it is Fat City. My bad.
