I came across this New York Times article about a family who lives 35 stories high in the pyramid atop Seattle's Smith Tower. I'm floored. And envious. From inside "The Lighthouse", you can see the entire city, but the city can't see you. Talk about a penthouse of dreams!
Fun fact: In the late 1970's, it rented out for $300-$400 a month. Can you imagine?!
Another fun fact: My mom just told me that my great grandfather was a mason who helped build the Smith Tower back when it was the tallest building in Seattle :)
