File:Construction of Husky Stadium on University of Washington campus, Seattle, October 23, 1920 (MOHAI 8802).jpg

This image of the construction of Husky Stadium on the University of Washington campus in Seattle was taken on October 23, 1920. The view is from the centerline at the east end of the stadium, looking northwest. The amphitheater-style seating is starting to take shape and will accomodate 30,000 spectators, an improvement from Denny Field on the north end of upper campus. The outdoor football stadium has undergone several expansions and renovations, most recently in 2013. Construction was managed by Puget Sound Bridge and Dredging Company, a major contributor to the construction of the Pacific Northwest. Many of their projects were documented by noted Seattle photographer Asahel Curtis.
