File this 1909 hand-tinted shot of Second Ave in the same folder we stashed this pre-regrade photo and this comparo. It shows Second Ave with the Standard Furniture Co. Building (now Nordstrom Rack), Moore Theatre, and New Washington Hotel (as opposed to the old Washington Hotel). Click on the thumbnail for a larger view.
