City Art

One of the joys of exploring Seattle stairs is the proximity a stairway excursion gives you to all kinds of beautiful art. A couple of days ago, our business took us near our book's downtown stairway walk route. Here's a tiny sampling of what a downtown explorer can see! For additional pics, scroll down to the slideshow.
