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 Friday. And hey: no cheating!
Talk about a view of Seattle from yesteryear. That's a 1944 Pullman-Standard trolleybus making a stop to pick up passengers, just like it would do from this 1959 photo until 1978. Straight-ahead, one of the city's most notable post-World War II office building is under construction and still stands today. In the foreground on the right, there's an iconic structure that might just give it away, but go ahead and guess where we are in Seattle anyway.
