My son and I decided to stop by Kerry Park on our way back from dinner at Ivar’s Salmon House. So glad that we did! Park is small, but the views are excellent. Full review by Lisa S

You should look to get images of the sign above the market. At the corner of Pine and 1st street, you can see the sign, "Public Market." Very iconic image of the city.

Hi, We drove up to Kerry Park for the iconic view which should not disappoint (depending on the weather you might also get to see Mount Rainier in the background!) A telephoto lens or zoom on your phone would also give you a great view from there. Otherwise hop on a ferry to get a view from the water back to the city.

Take a walk from the Sculpture Park along the water going North. View plus a little exercise. Another great walk with a splendid view is along 7th and 8th Avenue West. Just walk west on Highland after Kerry Park and that will lead you right to it. On a clear day the Olympic Mountains are breathtaking.

Q:
I'm reading different opinions re how good the view is. I'm interested in getting the iconic photo with space needle and Mt Rainier. Is this possible or do trees, etc obstruct?
A:
Worth it. Favor the right side of the park and arrive at dusk when the city lights turn on. At night you lose Rainier. During the day, the cranes will distract from your image.
