Seattle Paper Folds: Who Named the Space Needle Remains a Mystery

The Seattle PI stops printing tomorrow, and yet, after 146 years, they never found out who named the Space Needle.

I forgot to report earlier: the person who knew more than anything about the Space Needle and who might have named it, a senior tour guide at the Needle I finally tracked down last year, reported what I suspected: it was one of the group of about 12 architects and designers at a meeting where someone said: "Hey, that looks like a Space Needle!"

That may be as much as we ever know. Updates as events warrant.
