Space Needle - designed for the 1962 World's Fair by Edward E. Carlson and John Graham Jr.

The Space Needle was built for the 1962 Century 21 Exposition (the Seattle World's Fair) and is located at Seattle Center. Its concept and design are attributed to Edward E. Carlson (concept) and architect John Graham Jr. (design implementation), and it served as an architectural centerpiece for the fair. The tower's observation deck and restaurant were intended to showcase futurism and the space-age themes of the exposition.
