The Green Lake Motel is one of several vintage motel signs along Aurora Ave, the Seattle section of what was U.S. Rte. 99. Sadly, many of these signs have been destroyed, or are slated for destruction.

This one has definately seen better days, however, it is still hanging on, a little memory of the highways glory days. For a great collection of Aurora Aveue retro motel photos, link to tikihut.com's The Retro Motels of Highway 99 Webpage.
