This year marks the 60th anniversary of the 1962 Seattle World's Fair, which opened on April 21, 1962. Take a look back at how the city was changed by the fair, and how it celebrated its international connections. A handful of fair personnel share memories of the fair and Seattle Center, as well as look ahead to Seattle's future - and how lessons learned 60 years ago can be applied today as the community recovers from the pandemic.

Hosted by KIRO Newsradio's resident historian Feliks Banel, and presented with support from KIRO Newsradio, Downtown Seattle Association, and the Space Needle.
