English: Top of coal mine in Renton, Washington, ca. 1910 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: In 1911, Renton, Washington, was an important manufacturing city with over 3,000 residents. Many were employed by the two mining companies in town, the Renton Coal Mine and the Denny-Renton Clay and Coal Company.
This photo, taken sometime before 1912, shows the buildings at the top of one of Renton's coal mines. The mine opening itself was behind the buildings. Workers cleaned the coal and hoisted the waste materials to a slag pile behind where the photographer stood to take the picture. In the 1990s, Interstate 405 crosses the Benson Road at about this point.
