I would say park at the waterfront and then take the waterfront shuttle (free) from the opposite side of the road to the space needle. There might be a closer option to your destination, but I won't know about it.
Seattle parking sucks
Park in front valet is worth it
Seattle ballet parking, you can walk from there
9.99 for 1-2 hours if in front of space needle..try the street parking
I took Uber
