The Olympic Sculpture Park, created and operated by the Seattle Art Museum, is a park, free and open to the public, in Seattle, Washington that opened on January 20, 2007. The park consists of a 9acre outdoor sculpture museum and beach. The park's lead designer was Weiss/Manfredi Architects, who collaborated with Charles Anderson Landscape Architecture, Magnusson Klemencic Associates and other consultants. It is situated at the northern end of the Seattle seawall and the southern end of Myrtle Edwards Park. The former industrial site was occupied by the oil and gas corporation Unocal until the 1970s and subsequently became a contaminated brownfield before the Seattle Art Museum proposed to transform the area into one of the only green spaces in Downtown Seattle.As a free-admission outdoor sculpture park with both permanent and visiting installations, it is a unique institution in the United States. The idea of green space for large, monumental sculpture in Seattle, was first discussed between Virginia and Bagley Wright, Mary and Jon Shirley (former president of Microsoft and Chairman of the Seattle Art Museum Board of Directors), and Seattle Art Museum director (and wife of William Gates Sr.) Mimi Gardner Gates. The idea grew further during a discussion in 1996 between and Martha Wyckoff while stranded on a fly fishing trip in Mongolia due to a helicopter crash. Wyckoff, being a trustee of the Trust for Public Land, soon after began an effort to identify possible locations for the park.

La Biblioteca Centrale di Seattle è la struttura più importante del sistema bibliotecario pubblico di Seattle. L'edificio, alto 11 piani e realizzato in vetro e acciaio, fu aperto al pubblico il 23 maggio 2004. La biblioteca ha una superficie di 34.000 m2 e può contenere fino a un milione e quattrocentocinquantamila libri. Nel primo anno di apertura fu visitata da oltre 2 milioni di persone.StoriaSin dal 1891 c'è sempre stata una biblioteca nel centro di Seattle, tuttavia inizialmente questa non aveva degli spazi dedicati e fu spesso costretta a cambiare edificio. La Seattle Carnegie Library fu la prima biblioteca permanente ad essere collocata in un edificio specifico; inizialmente aveva una superficie di 5100 m2 e fu ingrandita nel 1946. Nonostante i lavori di espansione, la biblioteca si rivelò progressivamente troppo piccola per una città che, nel frattempo, aveva aumentato notevolmente la popolazione. Una seconda biblioteca di 19.100 m2 fu costruita al posto della vecchia Carnegie Library nel 1960 ma verso la fine degli anni '90 anche questa nuova biblioteca cominciò ad essere troppo piccola e iniziarono i progetti per costruirne una nuova.Realizzazione e DesignI fondi per la costruzione della nuova biblioteca furono trovati tramite l'emissione di una obbligazione per un valore complessivo di 196,4 milioni di dollari, inoltre anche Bill Gates, fondatore della Microsoft contribuì con 20 milioni di dollari. L'edificio fu progettato da Rem Koolhaas e Joshua Prince-Ramus in collaborazione con lo studio di architetti di Seattle LMN Architects. La biblioteca fu concepita come un'opera di celebrazione dei libri e la sua forma dall'esterno è inusuale poiché si è scelto di assoggettare la struttura dell'edificio alle funzioni che dovevano essere svolte all'interno piuttosto che il contrario.
