Kristine GelsanoNoviembre 19, 2014Cool! I've never seen a Public Library like this. I enjoyed the modern architecture & interior design. I like how the floors spirals up. There's also a cafe in where you can get coffee/drinks & food.
Matt LewFebrero 26, 2017Go all the way to the 10th floor to view from the top. Also take the 8th floor and walk down the spiral.
Johnny PeaceDiciembre 12, 2017Always a great spot to chill for a couple hours. I usually go to the tenth floor to study, or binge watch tv shows. Then when you're tired of screens, take the stairs and check oit the unique floors.Votación a favor hace Mar 24
Erkan SakaOctubre 27, 2018This is the biggest public library I have ever seen. 13-floor modern well-designed architecture. The tenth floor has a viewing deck, too. Do not expect a majestic city view though.
Catalina OteroMarzo 23, 2015There's a whole section up on the top floor dedicated to Seattle history. Looking at some old yearbooks from the previous century was really interesting!
eric bornemannFebrero 5, 2018Fantastically cool building that is a ton of fun to explore. Be sure to go all the way to the top.
Veronica S.Enero 27, 2014If you're looking for a book from the aviation room, go to the 10th floor to order it. The book can be used just in library. And the room is closed on Friday.
IrinaAgosto 15, 2014Architecture of the building and the ambiance inside are a bit too abstract and futuristic to be soothing. It's one of Seattle's notable landmarks, so is worth checking out.
Sarah Malloy-GoodAgosto 16, 2012There is a free self-guided cell phone tour throughout the library. Fun fact: the public art outside the meeting rooms on the 4th floor is excerpts from Robert's Rulesand of Order.
Best place to get tax returns done for free. Look for the free tax help on the 5th floor.
Lailanie GadiaNoviembre 5, 2014Great architecture. Good place to hangout, study, and take a break from the downtown Seattle hustle and bustle with the quiet atmosphere.
R BNoviembre 25, 2011From the 10th floor, walk past the elevators and around the corner. Watch the movie projected to the side of the lower floors as you look down to the 2nd floor stacks. This place is a treasure trove.
RainbeauNoviembre 1, 2016If you've never been, you ought to walk through at least once. It's also a great space to work remotely for the day.- veronique @ zaptravel.com .Agosto 30, 2013The hub of Seattle's 25-branch library system, the Central Library, is a stunning jewel of a building that stands out against the concrete jungle of Downtown.
You haven't filed for your taxes, and need help? The United Way is offering assistance to doing your taxes. The will even eFile your return. They also have service for basic needs.
Matt LehrerAgosto 14, 2019The children's book section is something like 20 times the size of our local branch's and was great to explore.- R BNoviembre 25, 2011Each "side" of the building utilized a different type of glass. Compare at the angles & you will see the differences, intended to highlight various views of the city, rain & sky.
Irene MSeptiembre 6, 2012Designed by Rem Koolhas. It is worthy of all the hype and locals are rightfully proud to live in a place where such projects actually happen. Bill Gates chipped in $20 million for this too.
Brad FultsJulio 27, 2013One of the most awesome buildings in Seattle. Walk up the giant ramps, go down the neon elevator and walk through the confusingly geometric hallway.- ToryBurchAbril 15, 2011Marvel at this Rem Koolhaas-designed public library, from its airy and bright steel and glass structure to its towering non-fiction book spiral and vibrant magenta and lime children's reading room.
- Ethernet plugs (for those who don't have a WI-Fi capable device or who need more security) on a few floors are available to connect to the Internet. this one is located on the 8th floor.
Windows Live Photo GalleryOctubre 29, 2010Stand at the corner of 5th and Spring, across from the library, to capture the entire building. A reflection of the sunset on the building is possible from late spring to early summer.
Daniel PlemmonsSeptiembre 1, 2017The map room is particularly cool. Obviously the architecture is great inside and out.
Kyle McLainAbril 28, 2017Great view from top floor! Turn left when you get out of the elevator on the reading room level.
Rose JangFebrero 14, 2017Wow! An incredibly beautiful, inviting, calming space. Architecture done right.
Simply one of the world's best. This is no library. This is a flight terminal for armchair travel!
Tyrone JenkinsOctubre 4, 2017Definitely the best library I've ever seen... Seattle has great libraries all over the place
Amar MOctubre 1, 2013The best place where you can ever study and relax,also they provide many classes to teach english it's called Talk Time ..
Matt HealyOctubre 30, 2013Those hooks you see hanging below the windows on the top floor are for window washers. *faints*
Benjamin LukOctubre 27, 2009From the upper floors, you get a great bird's eye view of practically the entire city. In fact, the view's so great, you see things you shouldn't. Like that time we saw a couple boning on a rooftop.
- TruthorDare.usNoviembre 13, 2012We dare you to schedule an architectural or general tour at the Seattle Public Library and then search for your family surname in the Genealogy Collection.
RüyaJulio 22, 2015Perfect! 30 minutes + 15 minutes additional internet for guests and nice building.
Geoffrey BrailsfordNoviembre 24, 2015Take some time to casually walk around. There's so much to explore! Don't get lost.
Beautiful building. Unfortunately for the homeless this is one of the only places sane to hang out. Toilets are often trashed
Used the spl app to reserve books from my list a few days ago and the used it as my library card to check them out lightning fast today!
Rebecca MaldonadoOctubre 13, 2014Beautiful interiors and exteriors! It is not a building you would expect for a library.
David StutzFebrero 21, 2010Take the elevator to the top of the library. Walk out on the gangway overlooking the atrium. Listen. Walk down the spiral. Make sure to visit the red floor! Leer más
Nao TomitaMayo 14, 2015シアトル中央図書館：レム・コールハース（2004）。地上11階、地下に駐車場も備える公共図書館。不規則な建物の形状は、書架、閲覧室、ホールなどの図書館に必要な機能を縦に積み上げ、ずらしたため。この計算されたズレにより、吹き抜けや広々とした閲覧スペースを作り出している。
Shannon McDonoughEnero 29, 2013If you are on a Mac or iPad and are having trouble connecting to wi-fi, try turning off your wi-fi, restarting, then turning wi-fi back on. Not guaranteed, but worked for me.
Kaede BalazsNoviembre 14, 2013Whether you love books, or architecture, or both, check out the library downtown. Rem Koolhaas is a visionary.
David TrampFebrero 28, 2010Go to the children's reading room and be proud as your children learn a love of reading and continue their curious and fiery ascent toward heavenly knowledge.
Интересная архитектура. Есть бесплатный вай-фай . На первом этаже есть раздел Русской литературы.
