[edit] Summary
| Description |
"Seattle's coming retail and apartment-house district": idealized bird's-eye view of Denny Regrade, 1917. Note that the picture shows the physical situation of the land between Denny Regrade No. 1 (which sluiced away the West half of Denny Hill) and Denny Regrade No. 2 (which shoveled away the east half, visible in foreground of this image). See w:Regrading in Seattle. The major street running roughly horizontally in foreground is Westlake Avenue. The major street headed into the distance at right is Denny Way. Fifth Avenue marked the line between Denny Regrade No. 1 and Denny Regrade No. 2. Visible near left, on the west side of 5th just after it crosses Westlake going north, is the triangular Seattle Times building (no longer home of the Times, but still there in 2007). N.B.: Westlake Avenue at that time (and into the 1980s) continued about 2 blocks farther south than it now does: this portion of the street was sacrificed to build Westlake Mall. |
