Visit Kerry Park, Seattle in Washington, United States
Kerry Park is a 1.26 acres (0.51 ha) park on the south slope of Queen Anne Hill in Seattle, Washington, located at the corner of 2nd Avenue W. and W. Highland Drive. According to a plaque on a wall in the park, Kerry Park [was] given to the City in 1927 by Mr. and Mrs. Albert Sperry Kerry, Sr., so that all who stop here may enjoy this view. That view encompasses downtown Seattle, Elliott Bay, the West Seattle peninsula, Bainbridge Island, and Mount Rainier.[1]
The park is sometimes incorrectly referred to by local denizens as Highland Park, a reference to Highland Drive, a highly scenic boulevard that borders the north side of the park. For more info, visit this link:

Kerry Park - Seattle Washington
Description: This is a Video flight from Kerry Park on Queen Anne Hill in Seattle Washington. From this park is a great view of Seattle City Center featuring the famous Space needle. It was somewhat cloudy this day which made it hard to clearly see Mt Rainier off to the right of the Space Needle.
Alki Beach, Seattle WA
Alki beach lies on the shores of West Seattle, overlooking the Puget Sound and the city with the Space Needle in the distance. This is the perfect place for a walk, a bit to eat or drink on a sunny day or just to crash on the beach for a while.

The things to do in seattle #2/Gas works parks■Union Lake
Gas Works Park, in Seattle, Washington, is a 19.1-acre (77,000 m2) public park on the site of the former Seattle Gas Light Company gasification plant, located on the north shore of Lake Union at the south end of the Wallingford neighborhood. The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 2, 2013, more than a decade after being nominated.[2]
Gas Works park contains remnants of the sole remaining coal gasification plant in the United States. The plant operated from 1906 to 1956 and was bought by the City of Seattle for park purposes in 1962. The park opened to the public in 1975. The park was designed by Seattle landscape architect Richard Haag, who won the American Society of Landscape Architects Presidents Award of Design Excellence for the project. The plant's conversion into a park was completed by Daviscourt Construction Company of Seattle.
It was originally named Myrtle Edwards Park, after the city councilwoman who had spearheaded the drive to acquire the site and who died in a car crash in 1969. In 1972, the Edwards family requested that her name be taken off the park because the design called for the retention of much of the plant. In 1976, Elliott Bay Park, just north of Seattle's Belltown neighborhood, was renamed Myrtle Edwards Park.

Seattle, a city on Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest, is surrounded by water, mountains and evergreen forests, and contains thousands of acres of parkland. Washington State’s largest city, it’s home to a large tech industry, with Microsoft and Amazon headquartered in its metropolitan area. The futuristic Space Needle, a 1962 World’s Fair legacy, is its most iconic landmark. The city is situated on an isthmus between Puget Sound (an inlet of the Pacific Ocean) and Lake Washington, about 100 miles (160 km) south of the Canada–United States border. A major gateway for trade with Asia, Seattle is the fourth-largest port in North America in terms of container handling as of 2015.
First time in Seattle? Cut to the chase and make a beeline for its proverbial pantry: Pike Place Market. It was founded in 1907 to fortify locals with fresh Northwest produce, and its long-held mantra of ‘meet the producer’ still echoes enthusiastically around a city where every restaurateur worth their salt knows the name of their fishmonger and the biography of the cow that became yesterday’s burgers. It doesn’t take long to realize that you’ve arrived in a city of well-educated palates and wildly experimental chefs who are willing to fuse American cuisine with just about anything – as long as it’s local.
Visitors setting out to explore Seattle should think of the city as a United States of Neighborhoods or – to put it in more human terms – a family consisting of affectionate but sometimes errant siblings. There’s the aloof, elegant one (Queen Anne), the cool, edgy one (Capitol Hill), the weird, bearded one (Fremont), the independently minded Scandinavian one (Ballard), the grizzled old grandfather (Pioneer Square) and the precocious adolescent still carving out its identity (South Lake Union). You’ll never fully understand Seattle until you’ve spent a bit of time with them all.
To outsiders, Seattle is an industrious creator of macro-brands. To insiders, it’s a city of micro-businesses and boundary-pushing grassroots movements. For proof, dip into the third-wave coffee shops, the microbreweries with their casual tasting rooms or the cozy informal bookstores that remain rock solid in a city that spawned Amazon. Then there are the latest national trends that Seattle has helped create: craft cider, pot shops, micro-distilleries, specialist pie-makers, homemade ice cream and fledgling nano-breweries. Walk the streets and scour the neighborhoods; there’s far more to this city than Starbucks' vanilla lattes and Boeing airplanes.
It may have nurtured tech giants Microsoft and Amazon, but that doesn’t mean Seattle hasn’t got a surreal, arty side. Crisscross its urban grid and you’ll find all kinds of apparitions: a rocket sticking out of a shoe shop; a museum built to resemble a smashed-up electric guitar; glass orbs in wooden canoes; a statue of Lenin; a mural made of used chewing gum; fish-tossing market traders; and a museum dedicated to antique pinball machines (that you can still play). No, you haven't over-indulged in some powerful (legal) marijuana. You’ve just worked out that Seattle is far more bohemian than beige.

Lets Visit Gasworks Park in Seattle + Fremont Troll + Gum Wall At Pike Place Market
???????? Tour Gasworks Park in Seattle along with other noted city landmarkks such as the Fremont Troll and The Gum Wall at the Pike Place Market. Join real estate expert and Seattle native Sean Reynolds as he takes you on a tour of Seattle's top 3 most popular tourist destinations.
We will go to the Troll underneath the Fremont Bridge, located in the Fremont Neighborhood, just north of downtown Seattle. We will look at and visit the history of Gasworks Park, an old gas refinery that the Seattle of Seattle turned from a toxic wasteland into a really nice waterfront park for the citizens of Seattle. And finally, lets check out the Gum Wall at Pike Place market. Yep, pretty gross!!! Let's look at it anyway.
Whether you’re a family looking for budget-friendly finds or a seasoned traveler on the hunt for the latest Instagram-worthy vista, Summit Properties NW has you covered.
Transcription:
Hi, I'm Sean Reynolds, the owner of Summit Properties NW and Reynolds & Kline Appraisal. Welcome to another episode of Only in Seattle. We are at the site of Gas Works Park in Seattle today.
So today we're going to check out Gas Works Park, which we're at now. Then we're going ahead to the troll underneath the Aurora bridge that's pretty close by and then we're gonna run into Downtown Seattle and go to the pike place market and check out what I consider to be the creepiest thing about the pike place market.
So Gas Works Park, one of the weirdest parks in all of Seattle and possibly one of the top weirdest parks and all the world. And what makes it so special is that this was an actual gasification plant that was run from 1906 to 1956. And then the city of Seattle bought it and made it into what it is today, and many of the original structures from the gasification plant, as you can see in the background here, were left as part of the park and a lot of the debris and the concrete from the original structures is underneath the ground and has been built up with dirt, kind of went through a toxic cleansing process and you can see what it is today. And we've actually got an artificial kite hill. You can run a kite down, launch it, get it going, and at the top there's this crazy sun dial that is also part of one of the exhibits.
A few things about this park is that it's an excellent place to watch the 4th of July fireworks. Those are just crazy huge. There's a massive display here and this is also the beginning of the Seattle naked bike ride. That's an important cultural event here in Seattle. So Gas Works Park was also featured in the movie Singles and also in 10 things I Hate About You. Same one as in the troll that we're going to see here shortly. And one of the kind of special features about Gas Works Park is that it's another example of how the city of Seattle is taking something that was a real negative.
This was like a real urban blight, a gasification plant that had been shut down. What do you deal with it? Well, they took it and created it into this really cool waterfront park that's got a lot of features and a lot of stuff going on and yet they still left some of the original structure so that people know kind of what its origins were and now it's just a major destination and a really cool place for people to come and visit and hang out.
The Fremont Troll, also known as the troll under the bridge, is an 18 foot tall public sculpture in Seattle's Quirky Fremont neighborhood. What's crazy about this 1300 pound troll is that it's entirely made out of rebar, wire, and concrete. The artists that created the troll wanted to turn trash into an interactive piece of art. Visitors are encouraged to climb on him and poke out his hubcap eye also clutching a Volkswagen car with a California license plate. The Fremont troll is bizarre and truly something you can only find in Seattle. Now we're headed down to the Seattle waterfront to check out one of pike place market, weirdest attractions.
You've probably heard of pike place market. Uh, it's one of the biggest public markets and most well known in the world. But what you probably don't know is that one of the strangest attractions, is just down below. Let's go take a look.
We're now at the market theater gum wall and it's in an alleyway just below pike place market. Pike place market is right up there; and upstairs. There's just a ton of gum here. So how did all this get here? It's Kinda just to strange bizarre thing and it goes for probably 40 feet that way and another 40 feet that way. It's on both sides of the alley. How did this get started? So in 1993, there was an Improv theater right around here. And employees, from there, started to put their gum on the wall and they would start to do it in kind of decorations.
