Scope and content

  • In 1901 Edwin D. Ferris was awarded a contract to run a restaurant and boathouse at Point Defiance, and by the end of the next year plans were in place for he and his wife to build a restaurant and pavilion at their own expense--in return they would get a 10 year contract for the restaurant and boat house concessions. The octogonal structure was 60 feet in diameter, with an additional 16 feet of porch extending from it. It proved to be so popular that the Point Defiance Line added an additional track to accomodate the visitors who prized the expansive restaurant views and Mrs. Ferris' clam chowder.
  • Printed: Pavilion at Point Defiance Park, Tacoma, Washington
