English: Men and cows at Madison Park, Seattle, August, 1897 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: The Madison Park neighborhood of Seattle is situated on the western shore of Lake Washington. The Duwamish peoples who originally inhabited it called it "Where One Chops." After Seattle was founded in the 1850s, the area's first developer, Judge John J. McGilvra (1827-1903), purchased land and opened Madison Street at his own expense in 1864-1865. Madison Park became a favorite picnic and recreational area. In this image four men stand on the shores of Lake Washington at Madison Park while cows graze and wade in the water.
