The Dearborn Street garage was built in 1914 as an early form of parking garage where a car could be stored for $4 a month at a time when most houses and apartments didn't have their own garages. This is the current site of the Dearborn Goodwill which would use this building as it first headquarters until the current building replaced it in the 1940s. Looking north from Dearborn Street, an undefined Lane Street runs in the foreground and Rainier Avenue is off to the distant right.
