Cascade-Gothic-Rear-c50WEB

Near the bottom of the same list of featured homes is a lovely Gothic creation that roosted on the northwest corner of Eastlake Avenue and Republican Street. Here, upper-right, we see it again but much later, ca. 1950, and from the rear. Republican is on the right. The original slide for this is kept in the library of the U.W. Dept of Architecture, and is one of several colored slides taken around 1950 in the Cascade neighborhood. It may be that the project was connected with Prof. Victor Steinbrueck’s enthusiasms for local heritage.
