Smith Tower paranormal reports

Smith Tower, completed in 1914 as one of the tallest buildings on the West Coast, is located in Seattle's Pioneer Square and has been the subject of repeated anecdotal reports of ghost sightings and paranormal investigations. These reports appear in local media and on public-interest tours, though they are anecdotal and debated rather than documented by verifiable evidence. The building remains an active office and tourist site with a public observatory that references its long history. The tower's official records and architecture are well documented in Seattle historic registers.
