Seattle Then and Now presents archival photos along with modern
views of the same sites as they appear today, highlighting some of
the best-loved places in the city along with striking examples of
modern architecture that help make Seattle such a vibrant and
innovative city. Seattle's growth from a small lumber town to one
of the world's most influential urban centers has been spectacular.
Little more than a century ago, the city was made up of dirt roads
and timber buildings. The arrival of the Great Northern Railroad in
1893 and the start of the Klondike gold rush in 1897 changed all
that. Businesses in Seattle are still booming today, but they are
now less dependent on location and more on inspiration. Seattle
Then and Now presents archival photos along with modern views of
the same sites as they appear today, highlighting some of the
best-loved places in the city along with striking examples of
modern architecture that help make Seattle such a vibrant and
