Title
English: Ballard locks under construction, Seattle, 1914
Description
English: In this photo of the Salmon Bay waterway, the construction site of the Hiram Chittenden locks is visible. The locks had their official opening in 1917.

The brothers Clarence R. and Otto Langstaff were prolific amateur photographers in Seattle. Clarence (1880-1941) worked as a carpenter and also spent time at Mt. Rainier as a guide. Otto (1883-1969) worked for W.P. Fuller Company as a glazier and was a member of United Glass Union #188. Because most of their photos are not signed, it is often difficult to discern which brother was behind the camera.
