The Yesler-Leary building at the old pre-89-fire northwest corner of Front (First Ave) and Mill Street (Yesler Way.) The featured but anonymous photographer’s back would have been – by my speculation – with his or her back to the construction site for this showpiece building. 1888, the date offered in its own caption, is most likely correct. The Front Street Cable Railway’s turntable was constructed then for the new carrier to North Seattle.
