Sylvan Grove Theater and Columns

Seattle, WA

The Sylvan Grove Theater and Columns hide in a hush of trees on the University of Washington campus — four white columns from the university's original 1861 building standing in a grassy amphitheatre. Campus telling gives the grove whispers, figures and wedding-day ghosts.
