Title
English: Cherry Street east from Second Avenue, Seattle, ca. 1908
Description
English: Embossed on mount: Harwood.

Handwritten on verso: Between Cherry & Col. E on 2nd.

  • Subjects (LCTGM): Commercial streets--Washington (State)--Seattle; Business districts--Washington (State)--Seattle

Unless I (Joe Mabel) misread this, it is a potentially very misleading image. Maybe a cut-off stereo card? My read: the right 10% or so of the image seems to be a near-repeat of the left 10% (not counting the mount) and is not visually related to the portion of the picture adjacent to it. Just left of that is the northernmost column of windows of the Alaska Building (completed 1904) at the southwest corner of Third and Cherry. Then, to the left of that we look up Cherry Street with a regrade in progress east of Third Avenue.

With the proviso about the right 10% or so of the image, the view is from the Bailey Building (still extant 2020 as the Broderick Building), possibly from its roof.
