Planned Seattle Center renovation would cost $676 million
Seattle Center officials have a 20-year plan to overhaul the park, cultural and entertainment facilities that were established by the 1962 World's Fair.
The plan announced Tuesday carries a $676 million price tag.
Officials hope the city will ask voters this fall to approve new taxes to start the work.
Plans call for replacing Fun Forest carnival rides with open space, remodeling the Center House, and turning Memorial Stadium into a combination sports field and amphitheater.
