Summary

[edit]
Description

Item 4965, Engineering Department Photographic Negatives (Record Series 2613-07), Seattle Municipal Archives.

English: Bell Street viaduct under construction, Seattle, Washington, U.S., 1931.


If I understand the point of view correctly, the land has since been built up to it with fill. The point of view here would be roughly today's Elliott Avenue. The Broadway Empire Laundry Building is 66 Bell (corner of Western), then an industrial laundry building, now holding the status of a Seattle Landmark; today (but not for much longer) the Alaskan Way Viaduct would be just behind it, running over, and roughly parallel with, Western here.
