Transcribed from photograph: "Waterfront. About 1870. between Columbia Street and University Street. 1. Occidental Brotherhood building. 2. First Methodist Protestant Church (the Brown Church) 3. Territorial University." Contrary to the photo's caption, the location actually appears to show the view from Elliott Bay between Marion St. and Union St. The white building along the water is the Occidental Brotherhood Building which was located at the base of Madison St. The First Methodist Protestant Church appears further up and to the left, followed by the Territorial University.</div>
