| Title | 2nd Ave., looking north from Cherry St., ca. 1913 |
| Photographer | Unknown |
| Date | ca. 1913 |
| Notes | This photo predates August of 1914, and should be 1913. You may be able to verify this through buildings, but I was looking at the clocks on 2nd Avenue. I am looking at the clocks. There is a clock with a dark face at 1010 2nd, which is on the right side of the street near a streetcar and adjacent to a "United Cigars" sign. This clock belonged to L. L. Moore, who shut down and liquidated in 1913. Albert Hansen moved here in 1914, and put a different clock in its place. You can see that clock in an 8/1914 photo at the Seattle Municipal Archives #43364. So this could be after the metal superstructure was put up in 1913, and could possibly be in 1914 but certainly is before August. (Note per researcher 1/2013)
