Cornerspotter is the Curbed Seattle feature in which we show you a historical photo taken somewhere in the city and you identify the location. Impress fellow Curbed readers with your knowledge by leaving guesses in the comments or send them to our tipline: seattle@curbed.com. We'll post the answer on Monday. And hey: no cheating!

These days, protecting views of the Space Needle are a big concern. Not in 1930, however, since the monument hadn't been constructed yet. Today, you'd see the Needle straight-ahead. And you certainly wouldn't see those houses on the right. This neighborhood isn't much of a "house" place anymore. So...what neighborhood are we in and what cross-streets are we looking at?
