| Description |
English: By the 1920s, Seattle had changed from a city of small, wooden buildings to a city of brick and stone. This photo was taken about 1919 on Fourth Avenue, between Columbia and Marion Streets. It shows Seattle's oldest standing home now for sale, dwarfed by the growing city. The house was built in 1865 by Hiram Burnett, who brought his family from Port Ludlow to Seattle so that his children could receive a university education. Three generations of Burnetts lived in the house continuously for 25 years, until 1890. To the left of the house is the red brick Rainier Club. Behind it is the domed First Methodist Church. In 1929, the club razed the pioneer house to expand its clubhouse. Caption information source: Seattle Times, June 2, 1918, p. 10.
