Red Square at UW Campus, Seattle

The Heart of the University of Washington

This real-time view overlooks Red Square, the vast brick-paved heart of the University of Washington campus in Seattle, surrounded by some of the finest collegiate Gothic architecture on the American West Coast.

Suzzallo Library and Gerberding Hall

On one side rises Suzzallo Library, a soaring cathedral-like masterpiece of 1920s design, while the ornate bell tower of Gerberding Hall presides over the plaza beside the bronze Broken Obelisk sculpture.

Rainier Vista and Mount Rainier

Beyond the square, the celebrated Rainier Vista axis sweeps toward Drumheller Fountain and aligns perfectly with the majestic glacier-clad silhouette of Mount Rainier on the horizon.
