Summary edit

Description
English: "Where the Forests of Seattle Once Sprang". Metropolitan Tract, Seattle, Washington. The White Building and (to its right: the designs are so similar that they look like one building) Henry Building, shown here, have since been demolished. The very similar Cobb Building across the street (Fourth Avenue) remains. This is now the location of Rainier Square.

Artwork of Seattle and Alaska, 1907, W. D. Harney Photogravure Publisher, Racine, Wisconsin.

Copied by taking a photograph of a page in a copy of the book at Seattle Public Library (Seattle Room of the Central Library); image cleaned up using GIMP, mainly using the perspective transform feature. This was a bit tough, because the pages did not lie flat, and of course one cannot press on things in a rare book, so I had a log of curl to deal with.
Author Photo not clearly credited. (Expired) copyright was W. D. Harney, but that's the publisher.
