Title
English: Seattle looking southeast from from Denny Hill, 1882.
Description
English: Printed on verso: Seattle Denny Hill 1882. Seattle as it appeared in 1882 from Denny Hill, where the Moore Theatre [2nd Avenue between Virginia Street and Stewart Street] now stands. The graded street leading from lower center to the right is 3rd Ave., and the first street crossing from left to right is Pike. The University dominated the city from its ten acre campus where groves of fir trees are coming back. Providence Hospital at Fifth and Madison Street appears at the left of the University.

Original photograph by Carleton E. Watkins 5222. (See PH Coll 286.3).
