Summary
[edit]DescriptionSeattle from Beacon Hill 1900.jpg | From brochure Seattle and the Orient: "Overlooking the City from Beacon Hill". This picture would predate the Jackson Street and Dearborn Street regrades, so it it difficult to identify exactly how this relates to the later city (the viewpoint probably no longer exists, and even the waterline was drastically changed), but it is a view roughly to the west by northwest. At the extreme right, along the skyline, appears to be the First Methodist Episcopal Church at Third and Marion, a Victorian Gothic building demolished 1908. |
