It has a magnificent view of Commencement Bay. Built but never completed as a hotel, it converted to a high school in 1905. A small portion of Stadium Bowl, including rows of bleachers, is visible lower left corner. Originally the bowl had a seating capacity of nearly 24,000; however, after numerous mudslides, it has a reduced modern capacity of 15,000. TPL-10144
