Synopsis Seattle's Luna Park by : Aaron J. Naff
Luna Park emerged on the north end of Alki Beach during the golden age of American amusement parks. Billed as "the Nation's Greatest Playground on the Pacific Coast," the park introduced the city to a host of novel attractions. Pleasure-seekers rode shimmering horses, thundered down the roller coaster, and marveled at daredevils and sideshows. There were games to be played, prizes to be won. Thousands swam in the waters of its natatorium and twirled across the floor of its dance hall. The park's glittering nighttime display shone across the bay and arrested the attention of the city. Though open only briefly, Luna Park remains a vibrant piece of Seattle's history.

Synopsis Luna Park by : Frankie Mehtala
Luna Park: Season I -- this is where the mystery begins. If you live or ever have lived in the greater Seattle area, this novel will captivate you and make you want to see it on the screen. Most of the novel is set in Seattle and other places in the Pacific Northwest -- Mount Rainier, Lake Tapps, the Des Moines Marina, Mercer Island, Green Lake, Alki Beach, the Tacoma Tide Flats, and of course -- Luna Park. The novel's characters either live in the Seattle area or are drawn to the Seattle area by the events in the book. More than that, however, and this is where you come in -- the characters in this novel will not be fulfilled until the reader joins them and helps them unravel the mystery of Luna Park. So jump into the book and hang around in Seattle for a while -- get to know these people! After all -- they can't live without you.

Synopsis Seattle by : Clark Humphrey
One of America's youngest big cities, Seattle has already seen a lot of growth and change in 160 years. Stunning buildings came up (and sometimes down). Parks were built on shipping docks, oil terminals, and airspace above a freeway. And despite Seattle's nature-loving reputation, its landscape was raised, lowered, and reshaped. Explore dozens of altered places throughout the Jet City with Clark Humphrey, author of Arcadia's popular Vanishing Seattle and Seattle's Belltown.

Synopsis Luna Park by : David W. Francis
When Luna Park in Coney Island, New York, opened in 1903, outdoor entertainment was dramatically changed in America & in the world. In 1905, another Luna Park opened on Cleveland's east side to rival Euclid Beach, which began operation ten years earlier. Like its east coast namesake, Luna Park, "Cleveland's Fairyland of Pleasure," dazzled visitors with a fantastic display of electric illumination & eclectic architecture. Within these pages the story is told of Cleveland's Luna Park, that was among the city's favorite summer fun spots from 1905 until the end of the 1929 season, when it closed forever. The details of the times, mood & people associated with Luna Park are graphically captured by means of careful research, generous illustration, & good humor. The telling of this Luna Park story, authors David W. & Diane DeMali Francis take you back to: * The origin of Luna Parks * The World War * Prohibition * The ROAR of the Twenties * The Great Depression * Vaudeville * The jazz age, ballrooms, & dance crazes * Social struggles of the times * The controversies * Its competitor parks * The rides * ...& the FUN!

Synopsis Bridges of Seattle by : Maureen R. Elenga
Seattle is situated in a region of outstanding scenic beauty, but the forested hills and numerous bodies of water that characterize the city were formidable obstacles to connecting its communities as it grew out from the historic center. Between 1896 and 1930, the city undertook massive landscape regrades, landfills, and waterway cuts to ease movement by land and water. The completion of these efforts allowed for the construction of Seattle's first permanent steel bridges beginning in 1910. Nine bridges included in this book are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. They include Washington's oldest steel arch bridge, the 1911 Twelfth Avenue South Bridge; the 1913 Ravenna Park Bridge; all four of the Lake Washington Ship Canal bascules, constructed between 1917 and 1924; and the Depression-era Aurora, Cowen Park, and Schmitz Park bridges. Bridges of Seattle explores the history of the spans that are a quintessential part of the Seattle experience.
