Pioneer Square
Pioneer Square is the cultural heart of Seattle featuring over twenty city blocks of historic buildings, over thirty galleries, a vibrant retail sector, and Seattle's most exciting nightlife. It's rich in history and lore, examined in spirited detail on the popular Underground Tour which visits the eerie sunken storefronts of what was ground-level Pioneer Square before the Great Fire of 1889. Klondike Gold Rush National Historic Park is a small museum recalling the crazed days a century ago when rough-and-ready gold-seekers converged on Pioneer Square on their way to the Yukon. Smith Tower, which overlooks the square, was the tallest building west of the Mississippi when it was completed in 1914. |
