Seattle Public Library had this dated as "ca. 1910" but it is no later than 1905 (maybe early 1906, but it doesn't look like winter), or the Savoy Hotel on Second Avenue would be visible. Also, any time after 1907 the Washington Hotel would be gone. View is from the Alaska Building, so no earlier than 1904.
