The Seattle Electric Company Georgetown Steam Plant, a National Historic Landmark, was built in 1906 and operated until 1972. In 1995 the Georgetown Powerplant Museum was founded to restore, maintain and operate the plant for the purposes of education and preservation. It is lovingly run by a group of steam and engineering enthusiasts, and is full of fascinating machinery and vintage engines. "Steam meets" are held every second Saturday of the month from 10am to 2pm and are free and open to the public, with free guided tours available.

A steam meet at the Georgetown Powerplant Museum is a great way to spend a rainy Saturday morning, and there are plenty of those in Seattle! The museum has none of the stuffiness of some conventional historic landmarks.
