Olympic Block
Hotel Seattle
Collins Block, still extant 2020
Pioneer Building, still extant 2020
sign on post: "First Av S"
sign on awning: "[T]he Evil Eye"
sign: "Pacific Ticket Office"
signs: "1890", "Collins"
sign: "Hotel Seattle"
sign: "Rubber stamps | Signs"
sign: "Marine Insurance"
sign: "Docto[r] Powel[l] Reeve[s]"
Northern Pacific Railway logo
sign, mostly obscured: "Or[…] Stor[…]"
sign, partly obscured: "S•Y•T[•C] | Steam[ships] | Santa [Ana] | and La[kme] | for | Cape N[ome] | St. Mich[ael] | and | Yukon [River] | Points | Sander & […] | Agen[ts]"
Interpolations based in part on http://www.explorenorth.com/library/ships/steamboat_companies-alaska-yukon.html: SYTC is presumably Seattle-Yukon Transportation Company.
St. Michael is about 150 miles southeast of Nome.
Partially legible sign; you can make out "Lillian Russell" in the middle and "Cigars" at the bottom.
sign, partially obscured: "The Dr. Uebt[…]"
sign vertically on pole: "TELEPHONE"
Sign on end of awning appears to say "Daccos". This would be Joe Dizard's cigar store, and the word is presumably the same as what appears to be "Draco" or "Dracos" on the opposite end of the same awning in [:File:Second Ave, looking north from Yesler Way, Seattle, ca 1901 (SEATTLE 3079).jpg].
& a bit of the old Seattle City Hall peeking out.
