Fourth and Pike Building, October 9, 1928
Order an ImageDowntown Seattle still has a number of older buildings which are surfaced in terra cotta tile. This building material was particularly popular in the 1920s. It was inexpensive and easy to cast in many colors, shapes, and designs.
This picture, taken in the fall of 1928, shows the tile-covered Fourth & Pike Building at its busy downtown intersection. At that time, it was called the Liggett Building.
