A series of renderings by a Seattle architect shows the recently completed high-rises, along with under construction, proposed, and rumored projects. Seattle is changing, quickly.

Stephen Fesler shares renderings created by architect David Boynton to visualize the future of the Seattle skyline. "The renderings show real aerial images of Seattle’s existing skyline layered with the profiles of new development planned, under construction, and recently completed," explains Fesler.
"It’s astonishing to see how drastically Seattle’s skyline will change just a few years down the road," according to Fesler. "Seattle’s 62 tower cranes (by last count) will certainly have their effect."
Boynton posted the renderings himself on Skyscraper City and Flickr.
