Special Presentation

Join us for a look at Seattle’s early history as David B. Williams talks about his book, Too High & Too Steep: Reshaping the Seattle Landscape.

Since settlers first arrived in Seattle, the city’s citizens have altered the landscape with an unrivaled zeal. We have regraded hills, reengineered tideflats, and replumbed lakes to provide better locations for business and easier ways to move through the challenging topography. And we are still at it, though now we also understand that earthquakes and rising sea levels have the potential to change us as much as we have changed the land.
