Summary

Description

Lake Union Steam Plant, Eastlake, Seattle, Washington.
The original small Mission-style Lake Union Water Power Auxiliary Plant was built 1912. It was vastly extended north in 1914, with further additions up to 1921 as City Light Plant No. 3. Eventually, as clean air laws were adopted, the pollution generated by the plant in the heart of the city became unacceptable. The building was eventually repurposed for biotech as Zymogenetics headquarters. The current smokestacks are not the originals, nor are they functional.
View from the west, across Fairview Avenue. Note that the plant actually extends right up to the lake; this portion of Fairview is built on pilings.

St. Mark's Cathedral (Episcopalian) on Capitol Hill is visible background left.
