, 11 August 2021The Midfield Air Park no longer exists and has security warnings now so I went ahead and removed it from the list of Spotting Locations and relocated it to the Locations to Avoid section. I also added the most popular spotting location at present time (Aug 2021) which is the side of the road along Airport Way S.

You will need a decent sized step ladder as the area is fenced. Light is best in the afternoon and a 200mm lens as well as a wide angle lens will do just fine. | Located at [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=E+Marginal+Way+S+and+S+90th+St,+Seattle,+WA&sll=47.522638,-122.299295&sspn=0.002402,0.005021&ie=UTF8&ll=47.522653,-122.299579&spn=0.002402,0.005021&t=h&z=18 East Marginal Way and South 90th Street ] , this is a fantastic location to take pictures of planes from.

Located | Located along the side of the road on Airport Way S, one will find a [https://goo.gl/maps/CsbDqUSFtfR1kz4T7 short section with a sizable shoulder]. You can park in the shoulder and use a step ladder to peer over the fence for insane views of runway 32L/14R. This is probably the best spot to take pictures from and is frequently visited by other spotters. The airport is aware of this location being used for aviation photography so it's unlikely one would encounter any issues utilizing this location. | ||

===Midfield Air Park=== | |||
As of August 2021, this observation area no longer exists. Any mention of it has also been removed from the city website. It seems to have been converted into a construction zone of some sort and is now populated by lots of 'No Parking' signs. This was historically a very popular location and was located at the intersection of East Marginal Way and South 86th Pl. | |||
