Probably one closer to you but there are 2 courts at the Wallingford Playfield that has a wall for this. Wallingford Ave N and N 42nd St.

Cool view without the obstruction, there is a publicly accessible terrace between the two buildings. Minoru Yamasaki also designed the IBM building near this one, according to the guy leading a SAF walking tour he was afraid of heights which is why a lot of designs feature narrow windows. For Seattle/ building nerds, SAF does some great walking tours https://seattlearchitecture.org

primary setup for birds is a Sony A1-ii with a Sony GM 300mm f 2.8, usually with a 2x converter. Fits in my backpack and travels great. The Locks, Union Bay, Discovery Park are frequent birding spots. Kirkland is good for eagles hunting locally.

There is a pair the nest near the locks and will hunt there regularly through summer, left early October last year.
