Summary edit

Description
English: Building at the SW corner of S Washington & Occidental in Pioneer Square. Within weeks of the great fire, property owner George C. Monroe, then Seattle's chief of police, commissioned architects Towle & Wilcox to design this very unique building, mixing Victorian and Romanesque elements. Like most buildings in the area, it was occupied by various lodging houses and bars over the decades. Surviving the 1949 earthquake, it was replaced by a small tavern building in 1955, now the site of Occidental Park.
