Stumbled upon this gem while exploring Capitol Hill. It was early Thursday evening, the sun was setting and we saw a crowd of people in line for something and was curious as to what it was. People in line only said they were waiting for “the bench.”

From one traveller to another, add The Bench to your Seattle must-visit list!
