Summary[edit]

English: Regrading of 3rd Ave., Seattle.   (Wikidata search (Cirrus search) Wikidata query (SPARQL)  Create new Wikidata item based on this file)
Photographer

University of Washington Libraries credit Asahel Curtis, but they are also the source for the attribution at https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/digital/collection/lee/id/142 indicating that this picture is by James Patrick Lee. Since it appears to be one of a series of photos by Lee taken along that part of Third Avenue on a single day, the latter attribution seems far more likely.

Downtown Seattle, looking south on Third Avenue from about Seneca Street during regrade. Second building on left is the Sunset Telephone and Telegraph Co. Building at 1108 3rd Ave.
Depicted place Seattle
Date University of Washington Libraries say 1902, but that is unlikely, given that we have no other images showing a regrade of this part of Third Avenue at that time. https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/digital/collection/lee/id/142 (also University of Washington Libraries) gives the more likely Taken on 10 October 1906.
