Repository Seattle Municipal Archives Seattle Municipal Archives Office of the City Clerk City of Seattle PO Box 94728 98124-4728 Seattle, WA Telephone: 206-233-7807 Fax: 206-386-9025 [email protected] Access Restrictions Records are open to the public. Languages English Sponsor Funding for processing this record series was provided through a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission. Historical Note The Engineering Department (SED) maintained the City's streets and bridges, designed and oversaw construction of public works projects, provided traffic and transportation planning, and operated the sewer and solid waste utility. The position of City Surveyor was created in 1873 to survey the City, establish boundaries and street grades, and administer condemnation processes. This position was renamed City Engineer in 1890. In 1931 the Engineering Department absorbed part of the Department of Public Utilities and in 1936 it assumed the responsibilities of the Department of Streets and Sewers and the Traffic Department. In 1997, the water, solid waste, drainage, and wastewater utilities from the Engineering and Water departments were merged with the Engineering Services Division of SED and the Customer Service Call Center and Construction Engineering Sections of City Light to form Seattle Public Utilities. The traffic and transportation functions of the Engineering Department were consolidated in the Seattle Transportation Department. Content Description Seattle Engineering Department Unrecorded Subject Files, 1 1890-1990 http://archiveswest.orbiscascade.org/ark:/80444/xv57717 Records include correspondence, memoranda, reports, specifications and standards, permits, deeds, drawings, and other materials related to public works, capital improvements, and public utilities, as well as routine affairs of the Seattle Engineering Department. A majority of the documents have been reformatted to microfiche, but 38 boxes (15.2 cubic feet) of original paper documents are also included in the collection. Important subjects relating to public works and engineering functions include traffic planning and control, transportation, garbage and solid waste management, sewers, street maintenance and design, and water supply. Other topics include: bicycles, bridges, carpools, pollution, and landslides. Principal internal operations are also covered substantially, such as budgeting, contract agreements, permit control, and status reporting for both internal and external audiences. An important subset of these documents is correspondence received from the public, such as petitions, permits, complaints, and claims, as well as the departmental response. Significant inter-departmental and inter-jurisdictional communication between the Engineering Department and the Washington State Department of Transportation, the Seattle Housing Authority, the Department of Parks and Recreation, the Department of Community Development, and the Mayor's Office, are present in substantial amounts, as well as with the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle (Metro). Notable engineering projects covered included the Alaskan Way Viaduct, the Monorail, public transit, the Forward Thrust Initiative Series, and the 1962 Century 21 Exposition. The Unrecorded Subject Files comprises the Seattle Engineering Department's central filing system up to 1988. Almost all records were microfilmed by the Department's Administrative Records Center until its dissolution in the late 1980s. Records date from 1890 to 1990. Early correspondence includes topics such as paving materials; 1917 correspondence with the Minneapolis Engineer regarding their use of wood blocks as experimental paving material is an example. Records are arranged alphabetically. Use of the Collection Preferred Citation [Item and date], Engineering Department Unrecorded Subject Files, Record Series 2602-02. Box [number], Folder [number].

SAYRE rot &?+ *$$&&*? *• I^JJMJWW' 1 - *- \£*- ; * M: . * *>. f* j*^* */ ^ *** - • CHIEF SEATTLE Leader of his people both in peace and war, always a friend to the whites; as an orator, the Daniel Webster of his race. Note this excerpt, seldom surpassed in beauty of thought and diction, from his address to Governor Stevens: Why should I mourn at the untimely fate of my people? Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.

  • 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.

  • 1 September 12, 2014 To: Seattle City Council From: Barb Graff, Director
    September 12, 2014 To: Seattle City Council From: Barb Graff, Director, Office of Emergency Management Assistant Chief A.D. Vickery, Seattle Fire Department Subject: Response to Seattle City Council Resolution 31504 regarding Oil Trains Seattle City Council requested as a part of Resolution 31504, “… that the Seattle Fire Department and Seattle Office of Emergency Management review and, if needed, update the City’s incident response plans for the increasing risk imposed by the transport of petroleum by rail with a report back to the relevant committees of the City Council by June 20, 2014.” This response has been drafted in partnership with the Seattle Fire Department, Mayor’s Office of Policy and Innovation, Office of Intergovernmental Relations, Seattle Department of Transportation, and Councilmember O’Brien’s office. The Hazard Over the last several years the region’s transportation systems have become busier, more congested, more tightly interdependent and lacking in substantial reserve capacity. Disruptions in one part of the system can produce large consequences far from the site of the disruption. Two major rail freight carriers operate in Seattle – BNSF and Union Pacific. They each operate intermodal rail yards to support shipment of goods through the Port of Seattle. All the yards are located in large flat areas that are identified liquefaction zones, meaning during a major earthquake we can expect the land in the area to become liquefied. The tracks run north and south through the City. From the Port of Seattle north, the tracks travel by Safeco Field and Century Link Field as well as the City’s Emergency Operations Center and Fire Station 10 which houses the Hazardous Materials Unit.

  • Washington Transportation Chronology
    Transportation Chronology by Kit Oldham, updated 2004/p.1 Updated by Kit, 2004 WASHINGTON TRANSPORTATION CHRONOLOGY 1835. The Hudson's Bay Company ship Beaver is the first steamship to travel on Puget Sound. HL #1946 October-November, 1845 . The Michael Simmons-George Bush party cuts a makeshift road from Cowlitz Landing (now Toledo) on the Cowlitz River to Budd Inlet on Puget Sound, where they establish Tumwater, the first American settlement north of the Columbia River. Dorpat, 63; HL # 5646; Meeker, 158. 1851 . A crude wooden track portage line along the north bank of the Columbia river at the Cascades in the Columbia Gorge is the first railway constructed in the future Washington. Schwantes, Railroad , 15. 1852 . The first road established by law in the future Washington state is Byrd's Mill Road between Puyallup, Tacoma, and Steilacoom, established by the Oregon Territorial Legislature. Garrett, 3. 1853 . First overland passenger service from Olympia to the Columbia River begins; passengers are initially carried on freight wagons known as mudwagons (given the poor conditions on the route which do not improve much even when a military road is completed in 1861), with stage coaches coming into use as passengers numbers increase. (Except for the Columbia-Puget Sound connection, stagecoaches are little used in Western Washington, as the waters of Puget Sound provide the crucial transportation links). Dorpat, 66-67; Schwantes, Journey , 88-89. 1853. The steamer Fairy is the first steamer to provide regular service among Puget Sound ports. HL #869 January 7, 1853. Congress appropriates $20,000 for a military road from Fort Steilacoom to Fort Walla Walla by way of Naches Pass, a route that Indians used for generations to travel between Puget Sound and the Yakima Valley.
