Critics Review
“Now you can learn about and enjoy the big redo at ground level. Just published is the lavishly illustrated book “New Heights: Transforming Seattle’s Iconic Space Needle” (192 pages, Images Publishing Group). It was written and assembled by Olson Kundig, the Seattle-based international design firm that shepherded the $100 million project.” - The Seattle Times“This technical book pairs vintage tokens of remembrance—like midcentury blueprints and construction photos—with modern renderings of the tower, giving context to Olson Kundig’s plan for the since-completed upper deck.” - Architectural Digest
