Hey, where is the Smith Tower? I know when I moved to Seattle it was the tallest building in Seattle. Where is it I say?

wow! How long have you lived here? Because the Smith Tower hasn't been the tallest building in Seattle for a long, long time. It's in the financial district, very near Pioneer Square and the courthouse. And is about to be renovated as condominiums.

Just checked it out. The Smith Tower is 42 stories and was the tallest building in Seattle until 1969. So you have lived her a really long time!
