Creator

Title

First logs on Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad, 1880

Description

Transcribed from photograph: "Transportation. Columbia and Puget Sound railroad. First load of logs. 1880. 1. Academy of the Holy Names. 2. Beacon Hill."

Holy Names is not visible in this print, just out of frame to the left, but it is in a different crop of the same photo. If this shows, as indicated, the first arrival of logs on the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad in 1880, how can the Academy of Holy Names be in the picture? All sources (notably Ochsner's authoritative Shaping Seattle Architecture) say that was built 1882-1883.
