The Very Same Apartment Complex
World War II is very much a tragedy of the past although despite the hands of time much of the destruction left behind still stands. As you can see in this image, the very same apartment complex that was nearly demolished so long ago still stands, and it is a beautiful place to live or simply appreciate!
The tragic war came to an end on the 8th of May back in 1945 as the Germans surrendered. At the time the concentration camps had been deserted as Hitler took his own life. Focus turned to rebuilding all that was destroyed.
Seattle Before The Space Needle
It may be quite difficult to imagine Seattle’s skyline without the Space Needle. However, the structure was only brought to life in 1962 for that year’s World’s Fair. When it was opened, around 20,000 visitors excitedly used the elevator to reach the dizzying heights of the UFO-like pinnacle. This image displays the tallest structure west of the Mississippi River.
The structure stands a total of 605 feet tall and it was undeniably built to last. It’s debut brought over 2.3 million visitors.
