Title |
English: Looking east on Yesler Way from Post St., Seattle, June 5, 1889 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: Photograph was taken the day before the area was destroyed by fire. Original photographer unknown. Shows the Post Building, Yesler-Leary Building, Occidental Hotel, Schwabacker [sic: should be Schwabacher] Bros. & Co. building, and the Colman Building.
By process of elimination, the building at the southeast corner of First & Yesler (then Commercial & Mill) would be the one University of Washington Libraries is calling the "Colman Building" here, but I (User:Jmabel) seriously doubt that name; 1888 Sanborn insurance map doesn't give any name, so not easily settled. Also, the date specified in the title is impossible: that was the day before the fire. |
