Description
A similar view
English: From the materials for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition of 1909, held in Seattle. Picture, captioned, "Capitol Hill. Fourteenth Avenue North is one of Seattle's many beautiful residence streets." The street is now Fourteenth Avenue East; this is part of the stretch once known as Millionaire's Row (though the name has faded from use), just south of Volunteer Park. Several of these houses have been either altered or demolished. The view is looking east southeast. This is just of Ward Street; Aloha Street runs between the second and third houses.


More from Rob Ketcherside, via FaceBook, paraphrased (and referring both to this photo and, for colors, the one that is thumbnailed here: the house on the far left, 908 14th Ave E, still exists; recognizable back behind the trees. The next to the right, 906 14th Ave E, still exists; 3rd floor/roof has been altered. Across the street is 1409 E Aloha. It is there and unaltered but looks very dark, dirty, not obvious. Beyond that, 804 14th Ave E exists largely unaltered. Next 720 14th Ave E is blue, but may have been mistakenly painted brown in the photo. What looks like a white bottom is actually stone.

Mechanical scan of a work that is in the public domain because of its age


This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.
Note: This tag should not be used for sound recordings.PD-1923Public domain in the United States//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Argus_-_A.Y.P._ed._-_Page_33.jpg

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
