In 1892, the Great Northern Railway purchased 600 acres at Smith's Cove and built Piers 38 and 39. The steamer Minnesota was launched in 1903 from Connecticut. She was among two ships built for James Hill as part of the Great Northern Steamship company for the passage between Puget Sound and the Orient. She made 40 round trips before she was sold to the Atlantic Transportation Line in 1917. In November 1921, she was renamed the Troy and later sold in 1923 to German scrappers to be dismantled. The Citizens Light and Power Company Bay Station coal gas plant (foreground) was built in 1902, which manufactured gas by burning coal. Later owners were the Seattle Lighting Company in 1904, and the Seattle Gas Company in 1930.
