Good-Bye Pioneer Square and I.D., I will miss you so!

Today was our last day working in the Smith Tower. It was a sad day for many. I had to say good bye to the lovely baristas at S'Bucks in the building. Not that I'm a huge fan of Starbucks coffee, but it was convenient, and the people working there are awesome! I also had to say good bye to the elevator operators and other staff of the building who have been so fantastic to all of us over the years. They will be missed!



At lunch we headed over the the International District (I.D.) for one last good meal at the Green Leaf.



I like this shot for many reasons, but originally took it for my dad who makes model airplanes.



After work we headed over to Collins for one last time to drown our sorrows and I spotted this on the door of an empty business between the Smith Tower and Collins.

Wining and Dining


I ate in the International District today for lunch. We did not eat Dim Sum, but I thought this table looked so nicely set up, that I snapped a shot on the way out.



Grabbed a detail of the new arch in the International District on the way back to work.



I ate dinner at the Metropolitan Grill. I had a gift certificate, but it was still quite expensive. Their specialty is steak, but I think we were more impressed with the Cherries Jubilee we had for dessert which they prepared table-side!
