I just wish there were pictures of it back then. Sally Mayer I lived in that building and that’s where I met my husband of 48 years. I just wish there were pictures of it back then. Sally Mayer

I have such fond and vivid memories of the lobby, the elevator, the halls, and her very large 1 bedroom apartment. Even as a child I knew this building was unique and special. Her 1 bedroom apartment had an amazingly large living/dining room with the bay window and a very large closet. The period kitchen also had a cute eating nook. My sister and I loved to have sleep overs at her apartment. It was a special building and I hate to see it demolished and not renovated.

Cliffe, it's got your name on it. They should have considered it in preservation. The craftsmanship is amazing. Cliffe, it’s got your name on it. They should have considered it in preservation.

My hind brain seems to think that before the demolition process started, Virginia Mason was housing some offices there? I am so disappointed that VM didn't decide to rehab the building -- I love the architecture, particularly the gabled roof.

It's a shame they're tearing it down. I realize its interiors were probably not in the best shape but I think the building could've/should've been modernized. I hate to lose another cool old First Hill building. This building is in my neighborhood and I walk by it just about every day. It’s a shame they’re tearing it down.
