Item 2985, Engineering Department Photographic Negatives (Record Series 2613-07), Seattle Municipal Archives. Seattle Municipal Archives changed its URL scheme circa 2022; the older URLs beginning with "clerk" are deprecated, and will eventually fail. The following search should find item number 2985 in their new database: http://archives.seattle.gov/digital-collections/index.php/Search/objects/search/num%253A2985+AND+ca_objects.type_id%253A23 . English: Work in progress building 2nd Avenue Extension South, Seattle, Washington, U.S. Looking southeast from 2nd and Yesler, 1928. You can see where some of the buildings in the way of the street under construction already have portions "shaved away"; soon they would have new exterior walls, following the lines of the new street running from the old south end of 2nd Avenue just south of Yesler, where it met Third Avenue South to a point just south of South Jackson Street, where it would meet Fourth Avenue South. |

Tip of tower of King Street Station
Hose tower of the old Seattle Fire Department HQ
Stewart & Holmes Bldg
Standing cast-iron storefront columns, All that remain of the Phoenix Hotel.
This building was demolished recently (2020) for a new low-income apartment tower, apparently it was not deemed historic enough to even preserve the facade.
Cast-iron columns, all that remain from the C.C.H. Block's original facade, the unusually elegant rear facade facing the alley is still extant in 2021.
Scars from the Clancy Block (1891-2), among the first to be demolished for the extension. The triangular Apex Building would be built in the western wedge of the lot not taken up by the new street.
alley-side wall of the George & Nugent Bldg facing Washington St. Although the extension would only cut off the building's back corner, the building would be demolished entirely and replaced with the current 2-story building.
