a Boeing 747 was acquired in 2019 from Victorville Ca, and it was deconstructed, and the exterior is being reassembled without a lot of interior and engines, between two 47-story residential towers at 1200 Stewart Street, in Seattle. It's not finished yet

 The nose extends outward, making the plane visible from the street and impossible to ignore. The landing gear remains, subtly suggesting motion, as if the aircraft is arriving rather than resting. Its aluminum skin, left raw or polished, reflects light like a gallery object instead of a preserved relic. Even the tail is integrated into the flow of the building, forming part of the entrance sequence to a music venue below, ensuring that the plane is woven into how the space is used.
