Configuration of the large open yard between Railroad Avenue and the Pacific Coast Co. pier sheds matches the 1912 Baist map's configuration for the tracks of the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad Dept at this location. The 1905 Baist map shows a much simpler configuration.
This building was used by the Pacific Coast Co. as a maintenance shed, and later by the Chas. Lilly Co. (seeds). Sign here doesn't seem legible enough to pin down which it was at this time.
