    CONTEXT STATEMENT THE CENTRAL WATERFRONT PREPARED FOR: THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROGRAM DEPARTMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS, CITY OF SEATTLE November 2006 THOMAS STREET HISTORY SERVICES 705 EAST THOMAS STREET, #204 SEATTLE, WA 98102 2 Central Waterfront and Environs - Historic Survey & Inventory - Context Statement - November 2006 –Update 1/2/07 THE CENTRAL WATERFRONT CONTEXT STATEMENT for THE 2006 SURVEY AND INVENTORY Central Waterfront Neighborhood Boundaries and Definitions For this study, the Central Waterfront neighborhood covers the waterfront from Battery Street to Columbia Street, and in the east-west direction, from the waterfront to the west side of First Avenue. In addition, it covers a northern area from Battery Street to Broad Street, and in the east- west direction, from Elliott Bay to the west side of Elliott Avenue. In contrast, in many studies, the Central Waterfront refers only to the actual waterfront, usually from around Clay Street to roughly Pier 48 and only extends to the east side of Alaskan Way. This study therefore includes the western edge of Belltown and the corresponding western edge of Downtown. Since it is already an historic district, the Pike Place Market Historic District was not specifically surveyed. Although Alaskan Way and the present shoreline were only built up beginning in the 1890s, the waterfront’s earliest inhabitants, the Native Americans, have long been familiar with this area, the original shoreline and its vicinity. Native Peoples There had been Duwamish encampments along or near Elliott Bay, long before the arrival of the Pioneers in the early 1850s. In fact, the name “Duwamish” is derived from that people’s original name for themselves, “duwAHBSH,” which means “inside people,” and referred to the protected location of their settlements inside the waters of Elliott Bay.1 The cultural traditions of the Duwamish and other coastal Salish tribes were based on reverence for the natural elements and on the change of seasons.

  • Narrative Statement of Significance the Pioneer Square-Skid Road
    Narrative Statement of Significance The Pioneer Square-Skid Road National Historic District Introduction The City of Seattle Pioneer Square Preservation District was created in 1970, although the original nomination was presented to the Seattle City Council in 1969 and rejected. The district, with slightly different boundaries, was also listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. Since then, there have been two subsequent boundary expansions, one in 1978 and one in 1988. All of the buildings in the district date from after the Great Fire of June 6, 1889, which reduced roughly 30 blocks or more of the original City of Seattle to ashes. Buildings within the district date from four successive periods of significance. The first period of significance spans from right after the Great Fire of June 6, 1889 to 1899, during which Seattle’s commercial district, known as the “burnt district,” was rebuilt. The second period, a time of explosive growth, spans from 1900 to 1910. In the original nominations, the third period spanned from 1911 to 1916 and a final pre-World War I surge of construction. For this update, the third period has been extended to encompass buildings associated with the war effort during World War I and/ or completed between 1911 and 1927. A fourth period, from 1928 to 1931, is associated with the Second Avenue Extension, a public works project which continued to have far-reaching consequences on the open spaces and architecture in the district until 1931. It created not only the Second Avenue Extension and modified buildings in its path, but it also caused important changes in the streetscape along 4th Avenue South, between Yesler Way and King Street.

Additional Reference Guides Languages English Sponsor Funding for encoding this finding aid was partially provided through a grant awarded by the National Endowment for the Humanities Biographical Note Judge Thomas Burke was, for nearly fifty years, a central figure in the political and economic life of Washington State and especially Seattle. Burke arrived in Seattle in 1875 to make his fortune. He was a young man of twenty-five, lately admitted to the bar of Michigan. He had left home to make his own way at the age of eleven, so the prospect of beginning his career in a new city did not frighten him. Aside from his certificate of admission to the Michigan bar, Burke's tangible assets reportedly consisted of about $10 in cash. Burke had come West because boosters predicted that a great manufacturing and trade center would inevitably rise on Puget Sound. According to the promoters, the only question was which of the towns on Puget Sound would grow into the predicted megacity. Seattle was among the leading contenders, but in 1875, it took some vision and confidence to place your bets there.

  • Presented at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the Association of Jewish Librarians, July 5, 2010, Seattle, Washington
    Session 4 E Jewish Entrepreneurs in the Pacific Northwest: Who they were and how I found them Julia Niebuhr Eulenberg Julia Eulenberg has been both keeper and divulger of Jewish history. She was the first professional archivist of the Washington State Jewish Historical Society, and returned there while working on her Master’s Degree. In graduate school she developed the course on Archives and Manuscripts, and the certificate program in Archives and records management. Her Master’s Thesis was ―Samuel Koch: Seattle’s Social Justice Rabbi. Her dissertation turned to the broader topic of Northwest Jewish history, ―Jewish Enterprise in the American West: Washington, 1853 – 1909. She is currently expanding that topic for a book, with the working title They Knew the Territory: Nineteenth-century Jewish Entrepreneurs and how they got to the American West. JEWISH ENTREPRENEURS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST: WHO THEY WERE, AND HOW I FOUND THEM Julia Niebuhr Eulenberg Presented at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the Association of Jewish Librarians, July 5, 2010, Seattle, Washington Washington Territory’s Jewish entrepreneurs shared several characteristics with other mercantile pioneers in the Pacific Northwest. They were young, most of them in their twenties, although Ben Burgunder was barely seventeen when he arrived. Nearly all of them were unmarried when they came to Washington Territory. While assimilation did occur elsewhere, most of Washington Territory’s Jewish bachelors went to great effort to find Jewish wives. They acquired varying degrees of mercantile experience before coming to the Pacific Northwest and expanded on it after their arrival. Almost all of them lived somewhere else in the United States before coming west.

    THE RECOLLECTIONS OF BEN BURGUNDER Introduction In 1921-22, when I was collecting historical information from pioneers of Whitman County, I was informed by Ray Walter, a newspaper man of Colfax, Washington, that Ben Burgunder, at that time one of the oldest pioneers of the Inland Empire, had in his possession a manuscript of his own preparation that contained a description of his early experiences in the Pacific Northwest. I was also told by Mr. Walter that Mr. Bm'gunder was not willing at that time to have the manuscript published. Last September, when I was visiting in Colfax, Mr. Walter told me that he had examined this manuscript at the time of Mr. Burgunder's death and had used it in preparing an obituary for publication in the Colfax Gazette. He had, however, returned the manuscript to Leonard Burgunder, a son of Ben Burgunder. Upon inquiry we learned that Leonard Burgunder still had the manuscript, and from him I obtained the loan of it, with permission to have the article published. Mr. Burgunder's manuscript is typewritten and not dated. Leonard Burgunder was not able to tell me the year in which his father had prepared it, although he said that it had been written in recent years, probably within the last five or six. It will be ob­ served that some proper names in the manuscript were misspelled and that I have made some corrections. These misspellings, I be­ lieve, were not due to carelessness on the part of Mr. Burgunder, but rather to carelessness on the part of the person who did the typing.

If not the primary cause of the city's growth and prosperity, the Klondike Gold Rush nonetheless serves as a colorful reflection of the era and its themes, including the celebrated "Seattle spirit." This historic resource study examines the Klondike Gold Rush, beginning in the early 1850's with the founding of Seattle, and ending in 1909 with the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition commemorating the Klondike Gold Rush and the growth of the city. Chapter 1 describes early Seattle and the gold strikes in the Klondike, while the following three chapters analyze (how the city became the gateway to the Yukon, how the stampede to theFar 'North stimulated local businesses, and how the city's infrastructure and boundaries changed during the era of the gold rush.
