Fun In The Urban Canyon


 
Long before Seafair, Seattle was all about the Golden Potlatch. Up top is a shot from the big parade in 1913 near 2nd and Marion. Interesting that the Google Street View car captured some protesters on the left side of the street. It looks like they're joining the party. The second shot is another Potlatch celebration from between 1911 and 1914, this time just a bit further north on 2nd. Check out the street lights decorated as totem poles.
