Inside Chris Petersen's Office - View 3
They call it the best view in all of college football for a very good reason.
Husky Stadium sits on the west end of Union Bay and looks on to its waters and beyond to a renowned range of peaks, offering fans a breathtaking vantage.
"This is probably the best part of the whole office," Petersen said. "To one, look into this beautiful, 73,000-seat stadium into Lake Washington, across to the Cascade Mountains. And the view really changes depending on the cloud cover and the weather. It's spectacular."
The stadium was opened in 1920 and has since gone through three major renovations to the facilities. But the best part of the stadium are the portions that can't be upgraded -- the views of Mount Rainier, the water and the sunrise.
"Sometimes I have to pull the shades just so I don't get distracted and daydream out there and think about a boat on the water, so I can get some work done," Petersen said.
