Order an ImageIn this photo, a small boat travels west along the Salmon Bay waterway next to the construction site of the Hiram Chittenden locks, which had their official opening in 1917.
The brothers Clarence and Otto Langstaff were prolific amateur photographers in Seattle. Clarence worked as a carpenter and also spent time at Mt. Rainier as a guide. Otto worked for W.P. Fuller Company as a glazier and was a member of United Glass Union #188. Because most of their photos are not signed, it is often difficult to discern which brother was behind the camera.
