Summary edit

Description Third Avenue, Seattle, Washington, 1916, looking south from the corner of Union Street. The old post office (replaced mid-20th century by a far inferior piece of architecture) and the Pantages Theater (replaced by a car park, I believe). Unless I'm mistaken, behind the post office is the upper portion of the White Building, which was eventually demolished to build Rainier Square.
