EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard captures the bustling scene of Second Avenue in Seattle, circa 1913. Looking up from James Street, this snapshot showcases a vibrant cityscape filled with both people and vehicles. The street is teeming with activity as pedestrians stroll along the sidewalks, men and women going about their daily routines. The presence of automobiles adds a touch of modernity to the otherwise traditional urban setting. The prominent office buildings lining Second Avenue stand tall and proud, representing the growth and prosperity of early 20th century Seattle. These architectural marvels serve as a testament to the city's rapid development during that time period. A streetcar can be seen traversing down Second Avenue, providing an efficient mode of transportation for residents and visitors alike. This image encapsulates an era when public transportation played a vital role in connecting different parts of the city. Printed by renowned lithography company Curt Teich Company, this postcard serves as both a historical artifact and a work of art. Its detailed rendering captures every aspect of life on Second Avenue at that moment in time. Preserved within Lake County Museum's collection, this offset lithograph offers us a glimpse into the past - reminding us how much has changed while also celebrating our shared history as North Americans living in urban environments like Seattle.
