This might of been scanned from a bound album, hence the binding string. This may be the original photo or not.

Thanks Pete. Corrected the date.

Please note the typo in my first message: meant to write 1852 — not, duh, 1952.

It’s probably from the way it was scanned.

Is this a picture of a picture? There’s a twisted metal bar on the left side that seems to be casting a shadow on the picture. Strange.

This was built in the winter of 1952-1853 and was sited right about at today’s 103 1st Avenue S.

Not so certain about those posted dates though. Seem to vaguely recall it was razed by 1865. No?

FYI: A much better quality image is included on p.12 of my 2007 book, “Music In Washington.”
