I should try to recreate this view sometime

I'm not going to be showing every single historic local photo in this set, but there are certainly some that stuck out as highlights to me. Here's a cool picture showing the Ballard Locks, back around 1920. It's impressive how little of this view has changed over the last century -- about the only major change is that the trees are bigger, meaning that sightlines are a bit less open than in this picture! Oh, and you don't see loose log booms anymore -- traffic on the ship canal is a bit too heavy for that these days.
