If you’re looking for something incredibly interesting to do in Seattle, take this tour. It is a fantastic throwback of huge machines and massive spaces, with detailed labels and instructions on how to power a city from over a century ago. I went through a few months ago and it blew my mind. Couldn’t stop taking photos.
