Description
English:

The Stone Way Bridge was a temporary bridge that opened May 31, 1911 over the northwest corner of Lake Union, connecting Westlake Avenue on the south shore to Stone Way on the north. The bridge was in service until June 15, 1917, when the Fremont Bridge, built as part of the Lake Washington Ship Canal project, opened to traffic.

This image of the bridge is looking east over Lake Union, towards Capitol Hill. The Seattle Gas Light Company gasification plant is visible on the left, located at the south end of the Wallingford neighborhood.

James P. Lee (1894-1963) was the City of Seattle's Engineering Department photographer from 1922-1957.
