Summary
A map of Seattle in 1909, created by combining portions of the following public domain images:
This map shows the historic locations of some neighborhoods whose names have fallen out of use in the century since:
- Ross between Ballard and Fremont
- Edgewater (roughly today's Wallingford)
- Brooklyn (today's University District)
- Renton Hill for part of what would today be considered part of First Hill (or, in its most easterly portion, part of the Central District)
It also shows:
- A much longer Smith Cove (much of which was later filled), with the Great Northern Docks
- Lincoln Park for today's Cal Anderson Park
- The Moran Shipyard anchoring the south end of the Central Waterfront (now a container port)
- A somewhat loose map for Harbor Island (still under construction at the time)
- The size of the various lakes and freshwater bays before the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks lowered the water level
- The canal extending from the East Waterway near Spokane Street.
- The arrangement of streets between Lake Union and Capitol Hill before Interstate 5 came through.
