Description |
English: This view of the southeast corner of First Avenue and University Street in downtown Seattle features the Hotel Diller at 1220 First Avenue. The hotel was designed by Louis L. Mendel, Sr. (1867-1940), for businessman Leonard Diller (1839-1901), opening in 1890 during a period of reconstruction after the Great Fire of 1889. This building is one of only two hotels built during the period that still stand on First Avenue. The building continues to operate as an apartment hotel called The Diller. In 2009 the Diller Room, a craft cocktail bar, opened in the space that variously housed the Hotel Diller lobby, a Prohibition Era speakeasy fronted by a ground floor Chinese laundry, and the infamous post-WWII Flamingo Bar, where Seattle's businessmen, politicians, and underworld figures met to make deals and visit their mistresses.
