MAUREEN R. ELENGA
Thursday, February 7 at 6:30 p.m. at Microsoft Auditorium, Seattle Public Central Library, 1000 Fourth Avenue

Co-presented with the SEATTLE ROOM/SEATTLE PUBLIC LIBRARY, SEATTLE ARCHITECTURAL FOUNDATION, and UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PRESS. Ever try to locate the Arctic Building, or wonder about the original occupant of the building that houses the Magic Mouse? Don't miss tonight's talk by Maureen R. Elenga on her book, Seattle Architecture: A Walking Guide to Downtown (Seattle Architectural Foundation/University of Washington Press). This much-awaited, comprehensive, and portable guidebook to downtown neighborhoods and buildings will enliven the strolls of visitors and longtime locals alike. "Seattle Architecture is the first effort to assemble an up-to-date, factually accurate review of buildings downtown that is also compelling and readable. The joy of discovery that comes when someone remarks 'I never noticed that before,' is now in the hands of every resident and visitor to Seattle." – Lawrence Kreisman, Historic Seattle. Free admission is on a first-come, first serve basis. The Seattle Public Central Library is located at 1000 Fourth Avenue (between Madison & Spring).
