File:First and Spring, Seattle, 1912 (MOHAI 3084).jpg

Looking south on First from Spring, this view shows the Beebe Building, the Cecil Hotel and the Globe Building on the right. On the far left is the Holyoke Building, then the Schoenfeld Building, the Wadsworth and the Hotel Louvre. The trolley is crossing First at Madison Street.

Signs in image: Your Credit is Good. Standard Furniture Co. Hotel [Lou..re]. Palace Hotel. High Grade Alexander Humboldt Havana Cigars. Empire Theatre 10 Cents. Billiards. The Quaker Drug Co. - Cut Rate. Electrical Supplies, Mantels, Grates and Fixtures. Handwritten on sleeve: First Ave. (South from Seneca), 1912.

The date given for this image should be disputed since the Standard Furniture Company had moved to their new building at Second and Pike by March 1908. In 1912, when this photo was reportedly taken, Scotch Woolen Mills, a national men's clothing chain, had taken over the building's central storefront at 1014, with Wilts Sporting Goods at 1012 and the Crown Theatre at 1016.
