Title
English: Ballard from lower Queen Anne Hill.
Description
English: Salmon Bay is on the left, the Ballard Bridge on the right.
  • Subjects (LCTGM): Bays (Bodies of water)--Washington (State)--Seattle; Bridges--Washington (State)--Seattle; Railroad bridges--Washington (State)--Seattle
  • Subjects (LCSH): Ballard (Seattle, Wash.); Salmon Bay (Seattle, Wash.)

Neither of these bridges survives; they predate the Lake Washington Ship Canal and Ballard Locks, so the water here was about 10-12 feet lower than nowadays. The bridge on the right was aligned with 14th Street in Ballard, not 15th Street (the alignment of the present-day Ballard Bridge).

"Lower Queen Anne Hill" in the name is somewhat unusual usage, at least nowadays. "Lower Queen Anne" now almost always refers to the "Uptown" neighborhood just south of the hill, but this is the very northwest part of the hill.
