Seattle is the corner of the Northwest and the headquarters for some of the world's most recognized brands -- Microsoft, Amazon.com, REI, Boeing, etc. It is also a vacation spot to see the
Space Needle, Pike Place Market, and the stunning views of the Sound and the Olympic Mountains. The Emerald City resides in our country's psyche as our hope, our hype, our home -- young,
rambunctious, eager to imitate, out-innovate, and challenge the world's reigning metropolitan centers.
