This image of Yesler Way was taken facing east, looking towards the Smith Tower at Second Avenue and Yesler Way. The tracks in the foreground are part of what was Railroad Avenue (now Alaskan Way), which ran along Seattle's waterfront. The brick building in the center of the frame holds several businesses, the Bedford Hotel, listed at 73 1/2 Yesler Way, and Truck Tire Company. The building is still standing as of 2018, and has been renumbered as 1 Yesler Way.
