10 Seattle justifies its 'Emerald City' moniker in the rugged confines of
534-acre Discovery Park, a one-time military installation reborn as a
textbook example of urban sustainability. Speckled with Douglas fir trees,
swooping eagles, log-littered beaches and wild meadows, it resembles a lonely
tract of Pacific Northwestern wilderness picked up and dropped into the middle
of a crowded metropolitan area. Come here for breathing space, coexistence
with nature, and a chance to slow down and reflect on what lured people to
Seattle in the first place.
