Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. I love Seattle Walk Report, and I love discovering interesting tidbits about the city where I live. Every city has its secrets, and Susanna Ryan has a way of ferreting them out, mainly by taking long, contemplative rambles through every neighbourhood. In this volume, she tells stories about buildings, parks, streets, and features from architectural flourishes to standpipes. I'm nothing if not a fan of minutiae, and this book definitely satisfies that inclination. I hope I can find my way to some of these hidden gems, many of which can be found in my own neighbourhood!

Capturing the same charm and whimsy she brought to Seattle Walk Report, Instagram darling Susanna Ryan takes things a step further, revealing the forgotten history behind the people, places, and things that shaped Seattle.

In Secret Seattle, Ryan explores the weird and wonderful hidden history behind some of the city's most overlooked places, architecture, and infrastructure, from coal chutes in Capitol Hill, to the last remainder of Seattle's original Chinatown in Pioneer Square, to the best places in town to find century-old sidewalks. Discover pocket parks, beautiful boulevards, and great public gardens while learning offbeat facts that will make you see the Emerald City in a whole new way. Perfect for both the local history buff who never leaves a favorite armchair to a walking enthusiast looking for offbeat and off-the-beaten-path scavenger hunts.
