Caption: "Court House -- Seattle.," c. 1916. The King County Courthouse in downtown Seattle, Washington, was built in 1916 as a five-story structure, as shown in this photograph. Six floors were added in 1930, and another three before 1965. In 1967, a massive remodeling project imposed aluminum curtain walls on the building's east and west sides, changed the main entryway switched to Third Avenue rather than Jefferson Street, and made other changes to the interior.
