  • Subjects (LCTGM): Mountains--Washington (State); Boats--Washington (State)--Seattle; Waterfronts--Washington (State)--Seattle; Postcards
  • Subjects (LCSH): Olympic Mountains (Wash.); Elliott Bay (Wash.); Seattle (Wash.); Bays--Washington (State)--Seattle; Central business districts--Washington (State)--Seattle

Although the University of Washington Libraries dated this ca. 1908, it's at least 8 years older than that.

  • The Yesler Mansion in the foreground, near left, burned January 2, 1901.
  • Two stories (some sources only count it as one) were added to the Butler Hotel in 1903; they are not shown here.
  • In 1904 the Alaska Building, Seattle's first steel-frame skyscraper was built at the southeast corner of Second and Cherry, which would be well within frame.
