Well, the Space Needle is a Defensible Location, but not one designed for survival. Also, it is the exact center of one of the largest citys in the state, so you would A: not be able to get to it because of too many zombies in the way, or B: Too many survivors got there too early, you starve to death. Also you pointed out there would be no way to get supplies, and this is my number 1 concern. Without adequate supplies, what are you going to last, a week? 2? Either way, you will find that unless somehow the military stops by the roof and picks you up you are screwed. 6  out of 7 found this valuable. Do you?

Yeah, you could disagree but you'd be wrong.

First of all, the Space Needle is not in the middle of the city, it's in Queen Anne. While downtown is being ravaged, you'd just sneak right in. Second, my sister worked on the catering team there. They have served 700 dinners IN ONE DAY. You'd have food for months without ever leaving the building.

now that i think about it ur right... and exact center was a bit of exaggeration but it is in a very populated area, near the PSC and a lot of restraunts/houses/whatever so i think "sneaking in" is not an option. Do you find this valuable?

you really wanna haul supplies up the stairs when the power goes out? How much of the food there is perishable and will go bad if the power is gone?

Not a bad idea, just some things to keep in mind.

You could drop pennies on the zombies to kill them -(joke). I'd avoid cities like the plague though (pun intended). Getting surrounded with the possibility that the military may decide to vaporize cities to control the outbreak make highly populated areas a bad place to wait it out -(in my opinion).

If im in Seattle im getting out of there you could find a lot of places far away from people. Head out to the country or go get a boat and coast up and down the shore. Then you can come in and get supplies. Do you find this valuable?

This is a very good plan. The only thing I'd include is some binoculars, or some sort of long range scope (which you'd probably have already) to survey the areas you're landing on. You'd also need to come in from severe storms off of the water.

Would you have enough time to secure the Space Needle from Zed's and other people trying to get in. Are there windows on the ground floor? Ive only seen the top of it on T.V.. I always wanted to go to Seattle, maybe soon I can. You could grow food and collect water on it. I personally don't care for heights that much. But thats up to you. I would investigate the plausibility for your self then make a plan. I have changed mine alot since I've gotten on this sight.. Good Luck!!! Do you find this valuable?
