Description
English:

In 1911 when George Frederick Frye (1833-1912) opened his eleven-story Louisa C. Frye Hotel near Pioneer Square, it was considered Seattle's finest. The ornate Italian Renaissance design had an interior finish of mahogany and marble. It contained 350 deluxe rooms with exterior window views, 200 with private baths. President Theodore Roosevelt was a guest at the grand opening. Shortly after the Frye Hotel opened in 1911, George Frye died. His widow Louisa (Denny) Frye continued to manage the hotel and their other business interests until her death in 1924. In the early 1970s the hotel was converted into low-income apartments. The Frye Apartments continues to serve homeless and low-income households. This image shows a guest room with one bed, about 1923.
