Seattle – It already has everything you could want: a restaurant and observation deck, iconic status that defines the Seattle skyline and a pretty decent view.

Well that 360-degree view from the top of the Space Needle is about to get a little bit sweeter.

Multiple reports say that the downtown Seattle landmark is about to get an upgrade — about $100 million worth — to install floor-to-ceiling glass to both the observation deck and the restaurant.

Dubbed the Century Project, the face-lift will use private funds to replace the flooring in the restaurant with glass, providing a view of the Seattle Center some 500 feet below.

Construction is set to begin in September.
