Winston pages his assistant, a Miss Nakamura, and the three of you descend to the building's lobby and pass through its great revolving door, out to your waiting car.
There, on the sidewalk, you take a moment to look up at the tower reaching up into the sky above you. It is 570 feet tall—aside from the Space Needle, it's the tallest building in Seattle. Including sublevels, it contains 88 floors.
