Summary edit

Description

Page 132 of brochure Seattle and the Orient (1900). This page consists of text plus two photos captioned, respectively "John B. Agen" and "The residence of John B. Agen, Boylston Ave. and Seneca St." That corner is now the location of the parking lot of Seattle's First Baptist Church. I'm not sure whether the Agen property was the location that is now the parking lot, or on one of the other three corners.

Agen himself is one of several Seattle businessmen who legendarily arrived in town the day after the Great Seattle Fire; he was most known for dairy products.
