Lincoln Park baseball, circa 1915
Order an ImageIn 1900, Seattle's original Lincoln Playfield was built on Eleventh Avenue East between Pine Street and Denny Way. The popular baseball field was located south of the reservoir, near Broadway High School. By 1908, the park board reported that neighbors had started to complain about the players' bad language and "undesirable loafing."
