Summary[edit]
| Description |
 English: A very similar perspective in 2010. As in the 1928 picture, the tip of King Street Station can barely be seen on top, which should help the viewer orient.  English: 2007: Similar camera location, but much narrower view. You can see some of the buildings that are just left of center in the image above, sheered off by Second Avenue Extension. The four-story building makes a good reference point. English: Looking south on Seattle's Second Avenue from just below Yesler Way, 1928. The next year, quite a few of the buildings on the left were knocked down, as the portion of Second Avenue in the foreground was continued linearly south-by-southeast to form Second Avenue Extension, meeting up with Fourth Avenue S. at S. Jackson. The building with the "Casino" sign on it is still there, though it's lost its upper story: it's the "Nugent Block and Considine Block". The onetime casino (entrance around the corner on S. Washington Street) is now the dance club Heavens. On the ground floor is Barney's Loans, a pawn shop.
