8th and Stewart, Downtown
I love the juxtaposition of old and new here. These were taken from under the awning at the Greyhound bus station.

Ghost signs are intriguing remnants of any city's past, and the collection Seattle boasts is awesome. They provide tangible glimpses into another time and allow us to experience the past in the present. I am thoroughly enchanted by these signs, and with the help of local history and architectural resources I am slowly puzzling out some of the many stories associated with these early advertisements. I share what I've learned when possible, and often revisit these posts to include new information.
