Title
English: Dexter Horton house at northeast corner of Third and Seneca, ca. 1885
Description
English: Dexter Horton visited the small settlement of Seattle in 1852, and returned later that year with his family. He started out in debt, but within fifteen years became a prosperous businessman. In 1870, he founded Seattle's first bank. By the 1880s, Horton had built an elegant home at the northeast corner of Third Avenue and Seneca Street.

This Theodore Peiser photo, probably taken in the 1880s, shows the home of Dexter Horton. This house was built in the Italianate style, popular in the United States from the 1840s through the mid-1880s. This style of building has a low-pitched roof with overhanging eaves supported by large brackets. A cast iron fence and a wooden sidewalk run along the street in front of the house.
