Title
English: Native American canoes at the Seattle waterfront, circa 1892
Description
English: By the late 19th century, most Native Americans in the Seattle area had been moved to reservations. Many of these people made regular visits to Seattle to sell shellfish and souvenirs, or to look for odd jobs in the city. Each fall, many traveled through Seattle on their way to and from harvesting hops. They usually camped at Ballast Island or elsewhere along the waterfront.

In this photo, a number of Native American canoes line the Seattle waterfront south of Yesler Street. It was taken sometime between 1890 and 1893 by the Seattle firm of Boyd & Braas.
