Description
English: On verso of image: March 1909. 4th Avenue north from Spring. White Bldg left center, Olympic Hotel - center, F.H. Whitworth home, Hungerford Hotel (McNaught House) - extreme right.

PH Coll 1026.7

  • Subjects (LCSH): Fourth Avenue (Seattle, Wash.); Grading (Earthwork)--Washington (State)--Seattle; Central business districts--Washington (State)--Seattle; Buildings--Washington (State)--Seattle; Seattle (Wash.)--Buildings, structures, etc.

Despite the title given this on the University of Washington Libraries website, this is not the Denny Regrade. Pike Street, the farthest south that any part of Denny Hill ever reached, is three blocks north of Spring.

While the present-day Olympic Hotel would be in sight here, it wasn't built until 1924. If there is any hotel of that name in sight here, it is not that one.
