I don’t know of a better way to start the week than tak ing in a Max R. Jensen photograph. This time around he went upward for the aerial shot of University of Washington, I-5, Evergreen Point Floating Bridge, and Cascades. Click on the thumbnail for the full-res krinkle cut.

Wow…dig all that empty space on the Ship Canal Bridge!
Red Square and the buildings around it are all in place, but there is no upper deck yet on the north side of Husky Stadium. I think the picture is late 70s or early 80s.
Looks like this was taken when Pacific Street still paralleled the Burke-Gilman west of the Ave. According to county records, the old alignment was vacated through East Campus in 1981, but the new alignment was established four years earlier. So what do we think: 1976 for the shot?
Rode through this today and there are a lot more trees today!
