Fire and Gold Build Seattle A Senior Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation Undergraduate History Program of the University of Washington-Tacoma By Jeff Blair The University of Washington-Tacoma May 2014 Thesis Advisor: Dr. Mike Allen, History and American Studies 1 Abstract The final decade of the 19 th century established Seattle as the preeminent city in the Pacific Northwest. Prodigious changes resulting from the Fire of 1889 paved the way for Seattle to take full advantage of the Klondike Gold Rush eight years later. This work details the impact that each of these events had on Seattle and concludes that the compound effects of two events of happenstance created the foundation for the Seattle we know today. 2 Introduction Seattle was founded in of 1852. The area showed great promise. It sat at the edge of a deep-water sheltered bay that was ideal for shipping. The pine and cypress forest that surrounded the settlement promised a strong future in timber, and the waters of Puget Sound were a rich fishery.

December 2009 I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project | Supplemental Draft EIS Executive Summary The I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) Project limits extend from I-5 in Seattle to 92nd Avenue NE in Yarrow Point, where this project transitions into the Medina to SR 202: Eastside Transit and HOV Project. The overall geographic area contains three study areas: Seattle, Lake Washington, and Eastside transition area. The Seattle study area includes the I-5, Portage Bay, Montlake, and West Approach areas (Exhibit 7). The Lake Washington study area extends from near 47th Avenue NE east across Lake Washington to Evergreen Point Road. The Eastside transition area study area begins at Evergreen Point Road and extends east to 92nd Avenue NE. This report also evaluates effects that might occur from the transport of pontoons that would be used to build the new floating bridge, as well as from the production and transport of supplemental pontoons. Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) initiated the Section 106 process for this undertaking in April and May, 2009, coordinating with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO), Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), affected Indian Tribes, and other consulting parties.
