Title
English: Mineral Palace at Pioneer Square, 1893
Description
English:

On July 4, 1893, Seattle-area businessmen and industrialists opened the Mineral Palace at Pioneer Place (now Pioneer Square). The temporary building, designed by Skillings & Corner, was built to celebrate the long-awaited arrival of the Great Northern Railway, Seattle's first direct transcontinental railroad connection. Thousands of visitors walked through the building to view exhibits on the mineral, agricultural, lumber and fishing resources of the Puget Sound region. This 1893 photo shows the south side of the temporary Mineral Palace at Pioneer Place, where the Pioneer Square Pergola now stands. The Pioneeer Building can be seen in the upper right of the image.

Original photograph: 1893. Copied after 1975 by the Museum of History and Industry.
