Summary
| Description |
English: Description in the published source (1919): "Lincoln Playfield".
The view is on Capitol Hill, Seattle, Washington. The point of view is from a high window or a roof on the south side of E. Pine Street, looking roughly north by northeast. The park is now (2007) Cal Anderson Park. The reservoir in the near background was covered in 2006, but it is still there underground, and retains the Lincoln name. The building at left is still there, as are a few others, probably most notably the water tower on the horizon (about 20% across from the left), which is in Volunteer Park. The church at right also survives; it is the German United Church of Christ, 1107 E Howell Street. I believe that both of the apartment buildings at the far corner of the park are also still there, and it wouldn't surprise me if some of the private homes are still there, or were until quite recently. The reservoir and playfield have status as city landmarks. |
