Looking north on Third Avenue, Seattle, Washington, U.S., from between University and Union Streets, circa 1970s. Taken with quite a strong telephoto lens: the Securities Building in the background is about 5 blocks from the camera, which is probably pretty close to University Street. The Woolworth at right is at the corner of Third and Pike. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://clerk.seattle.gov/~scripts/nph-brs.exe?S1=175097&amp;S2&amp;S3&amp;l=20&amp;Sect7=THUMBON&amp;Sect6=HITOFF&amp;Sect5=PHOT1&amp;Sect4=AND&amp;Sect3=PLURON&amp;d=PHO2&amp;p=1&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fclerk.seattle.gov%2F~public%2Fphot1.htm&amp;r=1&amp;f=G">This photo</a> also from the municipal archive must be moments later: note the woman in the red coat, whose bus has now arrived. It shows that the buses, although still in old Seattle Transit livery, have been switched over to METRO.
