This is a message to people who have Gran Turismo 3 on the PS2 and know Seattle.
I know that the Seattle track is based on the real street plan (It was originally, the street layout has probably changed since the track was created). What I want to know is what is the big new building, it's down at the bottom of the track (the bit at the opposite end to the steep hill), near the rail road crossing. Because it's very big (you never get to see the full thing all at once) and looks very impressive.
the Space needle in the background is a nice touch though.

Well, I live in Seattle, but haven't played it. If you post a shot, I could tell you. Though I bet it's either Safeco Field (big, lots of exposed girders) or the EMP. (mushy and psychedelic)

Of course, I'm about to move to NJ, so I may not be able to get back to you immediately, but I will check back. (or you could just look for photos of the real ones on the net?)

Not that you can see the Needle from most places - it's small, it's not located downtown (about a mile away from the edge, really) and tends to get blocked out by buildings from downtown. Looks great up on Queen Anne Hill though. Seattle's great, wish I weren't leaving.
