PIONEER SQUARE PARK
Go there and contact
The street map reflects the history of the neighborhood. Following a quarrel, David Denny and Dr. Maynard, the founders of Seattle, shared the city on both sides of Yesler Way. The Pioneer Square triangle was the culmination of a limit that should not be exceeded. The buildings surrounding Pioneer Place were built after the 1889 fire in the style created by the architects of the Chicago School. A totem, stolen by the pioneers in a Tlingit Indian village was placed in the centre of the square in 1890. Burned by an incendiary, the city commanded another (the one that is now on the square) in 1938, paid this time. Just on his side is the bust of Indian chef Seattle (Sealth in Indian language) who gave his name to the city. The elegant ouvragée and glass pergola that decorate the square were made in 1909 by J.F. Everett to serve the passengers who were waiting for the trolley. It was restored in 1970.
