Fort Lawton Radome

8/26/12 Copic Multiliner SP pen, watercolor, Stillman & Birn sketchbook

Before Seattle’s Discovery Park became a park on Magnolia Bluff, it was the U.S. Army’s Fort Lawton, where the Federal Aviation Administration owned and operated this search radome. On a clear day, I can see this giant golf ball on the horizon from my home studio window in Maple Leaf, which is more than 7 miles away.
