Seattle - Photoshoot locations (Bellevue, Auburn: how much, neighborhood, theatre)

[ironicdreams]

Hello everyone. I am doing a photoshoot in about two weeks. I am looking for places in Seattle, Auburn, and/or Covington to take shots.

Any place that is gorgeous, isolated, abandoned, heavily vandalized, or off-the-wall different (like Freeway park in Seattle) is what I'm looking for.
((I'm mostly interested in abandoned and/or vandalized places.))

Have any ideas?

Off the wall? Oxbow Park in the Georgetown neighborhood has the Hat N' Boots:

You might want to get into the Seattle Underground. It's pretty creepy down there. Also, the cement plant by Highway 99, just south of the West Seattle bridge is pretty cool.

The Fremont Troll is pretty unique.

There are also some older abandoned graffiti'd buildings on Westlake Ave N: Google Maps

At Pikes place market they have an old movie theatre with a gum wall. While people waited in line to get into the movies they would stick their gum to the wall. The theatre would always clean it off until they got tired of cleaning it and it has now become a colorful isore. When you go to Pikes place ask where the gum wall is. It's amazing how much gum is stuck to the wall.

Ira500: Thank you so much. That looks so interesting of an area! I've never seen it before.

nikdahl: I wish I could, but as far as I know, the Seattle Underground is a tour-only thing. Outside of the made-safe-for-tour areas underneath Seattle, the other underground is inhabitated by illegal liquor dealers and homeless people. The Westlake Ave idea is wonderful though. Do you know whereabouts I would find an abundance of graffiti?

Twitch2: The gum wall is grossly entertaining.
