This image of Seattle's Queen Anne Hill neighborhood was taken facing west from Queen Anne Avenue up West Highland Drive. The cable car visible on West Highland Drive is probably part of the northern segment of the Front Street Cable Railway, which ran north along Second Avenue North from the cable car power house at Denny Way, turned west at Aloha Street, then turned north onto Queen Anne Avenue North until its terminus at Highland Drive.
