This is an image of a building or other location within the Pioneer Square-Skid Road Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The district has been successively enlarged, and hence has multiple NRHP IDs: 70000086, 78000341, and 88000739 |
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: "James Street, looking toward Pioneer Square, showing Seattle Hotel on left" in brochure Seattle and the Orient (1900).
The Seattle Hotel stood where the "Sinking Ship" parking lot now sits. It is actually the second building on the left here; the visible cross street is Second Avenue. The first building on the left is the Collins Building, still standing as of 2020. On the right is the long-gone Crown Building; you can see it from a different angle in File:Canadian Bank of Commerce (1904) (ADVERT 500).jpeg. To the left of that is the Butler Hotel, the lower portion of which survives in 2020 as part of the Butler Garage. |
