You can see the map here: https://pubs.usgs.gov/mf/1692/plate-1.pdf https://pubs.usgs.gov/mf/1692/plate-1.pdf For instance the space needle is just on a giant hunk of concrete that is only 30ft deep. https://www.spaceneedle.com/history#:~:text=An%20underground%20foundation%20was%20poured,ever%20attempted%20in%20the%20West https://www.spaceneedle.com/history#:~:text=An%20underground.... But from memory most large buildings in the downtown area are on deep foundations in soils, not to bedrock.
