On these storied Seattle streets, gray marble gleams beneath the shadows of Roman columns and brick arches echo secrets from gold-fueled days. This self-guided audio tour is your invitation to wander through downtown’s pulse, discovering legends and untold dramas that most visitors rush straight past.

Move between soaring facades and quiet plazas as the past stirs at your feet. Follow shifting fortunes, contested dreams, civic feuds, and bursts of brilliance that shaped a city determined never to stand still. Each stop reveals another layer—moments lost, recovered, or fiercely defended.

The marble halls are waiting. Step closer and uncover the hidden heartbeat of Seattle’s history.
