The latest episode of Mossback's Northwest, the Cascade PBS video series hosted by Knute Berger (aka Mossback), tells the story of architect Minoru Yamasaki and the US Science Pavilion he designed for the 1962 Seattle World's Fair.
Although the pavilion Yamasaki designed was intended to be temporary, it became a permanent part of Seattle and is now home to the Pacific Science Center. This we learn from Mossback, who also gives a brief background on the Japanese-American architect and highlights some of the buildings — most notably the Twin Towers — that he designed following the pavilion.
