DESCRIPTION (Check One) CONDITION Excellent Good Foir Deteriorated | | Ruins [1 Unexposed [| (Chock One) (Check On a) INTEGRITY Altered Q Unaltered Moved Q Original Site DESCRIBE THE PRESENT AND ORIGINAL (it known) PHYSICAL APPEARANCE This imposing home was originally designed as an English-type country estate, with extensive wooded grounds, reaching to the east to the Lakeview Cemetery and to the west down the stfeep hillside above Lake Union. The home was built of heavy stone masonry. The turret-like masonry front entrance mass, with its-leaded glass and carved ornamentation, gives the impression of an English maronial estate. The half timbered, stuccoed, many gabled wings of varying story heights and dimensions, are liberally equipped with bay windows. The number of chimneys indicates a quantity of fireplaces, one of which is on an exterior porch, providing warmth for a north-facing view spot. The interior spaces are highly decorated in walnut panelling consistent with the building style. The great hall includes a maseive fireplace* CO m In recent years" the land to the east has been developed into m residential plots of normal city size. Streets have cut through in a north-south direction* The most recent widening of Tenth Avenue East sweeps close to the kitchen end of the home. Parking is z. now designated on the eastern edge of the property, but the lawn co remains to the south, and the wooded hillside remains to the west. H 70 C o H O z: CO S.

The Leary home is impressive in itself, and was built by persons important in the history of Seattle. */» The massive jBtone»__stucco> _an.d-tinLb,er home was begun in 1905* It was z designed by the English architect Arthur Bodley, and by the end of o construction some four years later, was purported to have cost $250,000, Mr. Leary, the owner, died in 1905» just after the home was begun. Eliza Ferry Leary, his wife, was the daughter of Elisha Ferry, first U governor of the 8tate of Washington. John Leary was a lawyer until ID 1382 and then excelled in many business enterprises. He had come from the eastern part of the United States where he had been in lumbering and mercantile enterprises. Mr, Leary was mayor of Seattle in 1884. He .was a promoter of coal mines'and railroads, organized a gas company, and owned a business building. The 14 room home planned by him was completed by Mrs. Leary after his UJ death. She was a most gracious hostess in that setting until 193% General Insurance Company then bought the home, to use as an office. LLI Before it was so developed they gave it to the American Red Cross in to World War II to use as office and headquarters. At that time it was opened briefly for tours to the public. In 19^8 the Episcopal Church bought it. TheChurch also owns the similarly styled home to the south. Eliza Ferry was part of the large family of Elisha Ferry, who came to Washington Territory in 1869 on the appointment of Pres. Grant as Surveyor General of W.T. In her own right, she was just as outstanding. She was a charter member of the .Rainier Chapter of the D. A. R. in 1895» of the Seattle Red Cross, and of the Sunset Club and the Pioneers of State of Washington. She was a founder of the Seattle Children's . in 1885, and of the Children's Orthopedic-.Hospital in 190?« She vice president of the Seattle Y.W.G.A.^and was building chairman wheiT^he president YW building was constructed.

I cannot name them all, but a few are worthy of mention. Nancy Zussy, Ellen Levesque, Gayle Palmer, and Shirley Lewis at the Washington State Library were extremely helpful. Sid Snyder and Ralph Munro have each been treasured friends for more than 30 years. They probably know more about the history of this legislature than any other two people. I am honored and flattered that they would write brief forwards. There are many who have offered encouragement as I spent day after day seated at the microfilm machine in the Washington Room at the library. It is a laborious task; not easy on the eyes. They include my sons, Bruce and Tom, Scott Gaspard, Representative Shirley Hankins, Shelby Scates, Mike Layton, the late Gerald Sorte, Senator Bob Bailey, Sena- tor Ray Moore and his wife Virginia, Rowland Thompson, and numerous others who I know I’ve forgotten to mention. My special gratitude goes to Deanna Haigh who deciphered my handwriting and typed the manuscript.

  • Context Statement
    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.

I was a GPLEX groupie long before I ever imagined I’d be leading this great organization. In any case, I am thrilled to spend a few days with all of you, the movers and shakers who make Greater Philadelphia, well, great. You are among the most diverse cohort we’ve assembled, across both social identity and sector. In GPLEX’s 13th year, we’re incredibly proud to count an alumni base of nearly 1,000 leaders. Stand tall GPLEXers! As always, the board and staff of the Economy League were very deliberate in choosing this year’s destination; we always seek regions that share similarities to our own in size, economy, etc. That said, Seattle is certainly different from Philadelphia. In 1860, while Philadelphia was one of the world’s largest and most economically vibrant cities, the “workshop of the world,” Seattle’s population was about 200 souls; 100 years later, Philadelphia hit its population peak of two million and then saw 50 years of population decline before the slow and steady growth of the late 1990s to the present.

  • Key Award – Irwin & Ferreiro
    June 28, 2021 Press Release Contact: George Erb, coalition secretary, [email protected] Juli Bunting, coalition executive director, [email protected] WCOG recognizes Stacy Irwin and Kim Ferreiro for their professionalism and courage SEATTLE – The Washington Coalition for Open Government (WCOG) has presented Key Awards to Stacy Irwin and Kim Ferreiro for their professionalism and courage while working as public records officers in the Office of the Mayor of Seattle. The coalition, which is independent and nonpartisan, presents Key Awards throughout the year to people and organizations that do something notable for the cause of open government. With Ferreiro’s assistance, Irwin filed a whistleblower complaint regarding the handling of public records requests for text messages of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan. The complaint led to an ethics investigation that found the Mayor’s Office mishandled various requests after discovering the mayor’s text messages were missing for a period of about 10 months. The investigation found that Michelle Chen, the mayor’s legal counsel, violated the state Public Records Act when she decided to exclude Durkan’s missing texts from certain requests. The report said Chen departed from best practices when she decided the Mayor’s Office wouldn’t inform requesters that Durkan’s texts from Aug. 28, 2019, to June 25, 2020, had not been retained. The report said Irwin and Ferreiro objected to many of Chen’s decisions and to how Chen had directed them to process various requests. “The records reviewed during this investigation show that Irwin and Ferreiro were knowledgeable public records officers who strived to follow best practices when responding to PRA requests,” it said.

  • NORM DICKS Alma Mater Comes of Age
    NORM DICKS ALMA MATER COMES OF AGE nsurprisingly, there’s a big purple W on Norm Dicks’ favorite windbreaker. He came of age at the University of Washington. And when he departed with a law Udegree in 1968 he landed a job as an aide to Warren G. Magnuson, the canny old lion of the United States Senate. A 1929 graduate of the UW Law School, “Maggie” surrounded himself with young Huskies and taught them how to mush. Dicks was a fast learner. He went on to serve 36 years in Congress, only once winning re-election with less than 58 percent of the vote. Pundits called him “Washington’s third senator.” Dicks’ years at the university are like bookends to the history of one of the most tumultuous decades in American history: The Sixties. “It was an incredible time to be a student at a major university,” Dicks remembers—especially on the day in 1961 when he watched John F. Kennedy stride toward Edmundson Pavilion to address the universi- ty’s centennial convocation. The young president spoke of the need for Americans to be, “above all else … united in recognizing the long and difficult days that lie ahead.” Kennedy’s words were tragically prescient. The struggle for civil rights and Ameri- ca’s escalating involvement in Vietnam stoked stu- dent activism. “In the spring of 1963, we rose up and fought to keep the bricks from being paved over in the ‘Quad’—the university’s historic main quadrangle,” Dicks remembers. “It was amazing— the first time we had really stood up for anything against the administration.” He was a member of the student Board of Control, which initiated an “Open Forum” for outdoor oratory on campus.

  • Letter from Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan
    February 11, 2021 The Honorable John Horgan P.O. Box 9041 STV PROV GOVT Victoria, BC V8W9E1 Canada Dear Premier Horgan, As we start the new year, I want to congratulate you on the New Democratic Party’s victory in October and your second term as premier. As you appointed your new cabinet members late last year and set out the mandates for their ministries’ work, you likely considered the important legacies you wish to provide the people of British Columbia during your second term. Here in the United States, we are starting the year with a new president and a dramatic shift in leadership at the federal level that will undoubtably renew our country’s commitment to environmental protection and partnerships with neighboring countries. Along with this, development and distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine puts us on a positive path forward out of the current crisis. These events present an opportune time for us to recommit and recharge our efforts to protect the Silverdaisy Area of the Upper Skagit Watershed as directed by the High Ross Treaty and Agreement. You recently received a letter signed by 108 U.S. stakeholders including conservation, recreation, and wildlife groups as well as elected officials and local businesses opposed to logging and mining in the Upper Skagit Watershed in British Columbia. Despite the global pandemic and the economic hardship facing our residents and businesses, the City of Seattle remains fully committed to working with you and your cabinet to advance our mutual obligation to protect the Silverdaisy Area that continues to receive significant attention and support from a large and diverse group of stakeholders, including local, state, and federal elected officials as well as US Tribes and First Nations.
