Both streetcar directions utilize Westlake Ave. N near
downtown. Midway along the route the northbound cars turn onto Thomas
St. to travel one block before another turn, onto Terry Ave. N. The
photographer is on Thomas, and is looking west. The inbound track
travels straight across ahead.
This view is from several months before
the line opened. Tracks are in place, but wires had not yet been
strung.
The city's famous Space Needle is not
too far away, and is prominent in this scene. One can barely
make out the monorail structure in the distance, where Thomas ends. The two routes
have become progressively further apart as they have traveled from their downtown
terminals. |
