Title
English: Crawford and Hannon offices, 1889
Description
English:

Real estate brokers and financial agents. Caption on mount: N. E. cor. 3rd and Yesler Ave.

  • Subjects (LCTGM): Group portraits
  • Subjects (LCSH): Crawford & Hannon; Real estate agents--Washington (State)--Seattle; Third Avenue (Seattle, Wash.); Yesler Way (Seattle, Wash.); Pioneer Square-Skid Road Historic District (Seattle, Wash.)

The building at left is the Seattle City Hall, built 1876 as King County jail, county clerk's and auditor's office, with a courtroom added in 1881; became Seattle city hall in 1891, demolished in 1909.

Not too sure on the "Town of York", but it might have been related to a subdivision called York near where Renton Avenue South now meets Martin Luther King, Jr. Way in Seattle; there was an electrical substation there that was called "York Substation" and there is now (2020) a park of that name on the former site of the substation. That would have been outside of city limits at the time.
