- (No Audio) From Native village to metropolis, the Pioneer Square neighborhood of Seattle has undergone dramatic transformations. This animation provides a bird's eye glimpse at some of the social, economic, and landscape histories of the neighborhood through time.

And now the via duct is gone, and it is very beautiful without it.
I live in pioneer square and I really enjoyed this video
Thank you
This is incredible! Love seeing how the city and shoreline have evolved. Would be interested to see another slide with the forthcoming new waterfront. Thx Burke!
Wonderful! Thank you for this great way to visualize our history! I learned so much and would love one for every area of Seattle!
That's was cool as heck to see the rewind time like that dude, good job
Love this! I'd like to see a larger version including the transformation of Denny Hill and the creation of Seattle Center.
I thought I saw a lot of changes when I lived in Seattle, as I saw the 1960's era Library come down and the King Dome implode. But obviously the city has been rebuilding itself forever. Its surprising how much of that change has been to shoreline itself. And despite having lived through the WTO riots there in 1999, I still love that city and hope to get back there someday.
After CONNING SEATTLE RESIDENTS into *PAYING 4 the Kingdome* it was blown up B4 IT WAS PAID FOR. Kinda like getting the shaft TWICE right?? *Liberal Motards run the city so you're screwed if you live there. DON'T OC there either cops will swarm you. Doesn't matter OC IS LEGAL cops don't like others carrying guns.*
This is sensational!
I friggin' love this!
It's so strange to see places like the double header and Shelley leg in a historical piece. It's also weird to remember when the Smith tower was the tallest building on the west coast. A piece of trivia is about the drag bar in its basement
very well done!! Thank you for this! -seattle resident
Makes my heart heave, to see what was stolen
Great work. Doing research on Seattle and this is very helpful.
very comprehensive. great job!
Very well done and informative, sets the standard for other communities
Very good
Thanks so much!
Why isn't the burial of the first floors of the city in the 1890s included in this history?
dissapointed you chose not to include the denny regrade and regrades of other hills downtown :(
I’m glad you’re disappointed.
❤
Fascinating study.
Wow
My everyday
To weekend clubing
Partying
Woo such a historic place never knew so worhtty
From poor Ole Yeslers house to Bell Town babayyy
Is there no sound?????
I'm confused about this too.
Wow. This would make a great interactive kiosk
Very interesting video. Has the producer ever met one person who can decipher the language of the native people that is included in the description? It’s as useful as adding Arabic, Hebrew, Greek or Egyptian hieroglyphs. Just phonetic English will get the idea across.
Phonetic English doesn't work well at all for Coast Salish languages. That's why they argue over whether his name was Sealth or Seattle (both are wrong, but they're about as close as a mouth that grew up making European noises can come). Same goes for Tahoma or Tacoma. And, yes, there are Coast Salish speakers who use our Roman alphabet adaptation. I don't think any of the Coast Salish peoples had a written language - knowledge was passed on by memorization and recitation.
Our family is new to the area. This is an other example of why we love it here. Thanks so much.
the kingdome is very far from the most interesting thing here, but its crazy that it only lasted 24 years, safeco field is over 20 years old now and I think it is here to stay, same with seahawks stadium
that is cool.
Is there audio on this video?
I wish there was
From Lagoon fill to Capitol Hill

Being Duwamish this was painful to watch.
From a stream to pike street hahahah
Rad.

SEATTLE *SUCKS. Demo-RATS run the city and most of Washington state. You're the 2nd comment I gave a Like to.* Don't try to Open Carry there. OC is legal in WA state. Seattle cops hate the OC crowd. Tho it's a great way to earn extra cash if you're calm cool and collected. Sue 4 false arrest and make $10-30K tax free.
Show us on the doll where Seattle touched you.
@@howardfortyfive9676 I live downtown and I have my permit, though I only open carry at political rallies.
Most people here would shit their panties if they knew I carry.
I'm a very quite and kind person, I dress casual, and only share my political views when I think it will be beneficial.
It is a beautiful city, but it's also a dying city, there is human waste on the sidewalks, and drug users have begun using bright out in the open with no fear of arrest, injecting right on a busy sidewalk.
I see it every day.
I've been attacked multiple times by people I had never even spoken to.
I used to be a Democrat, was raised from grade school to "vote for Democrats and women" I was pro abortion by the age of 11, even though I felt inside that it was wrong.
Moving to Seattle is what helped me see how these nice sounding ideas and ideals actually dont help anyone, in reality they hurt everyone.
It's been a hard and solitary journey waking up, but I'll never vote for big government again, and I've been able to make other friends that see the left for what it is, a power hungry ideology of social constructionism, that will do and say anything to dominate and control everyone
The left is the establishment and its increasingly authoritarian, anti American
And very dangerous
@@umbra9628 No. We'd just think you are a paranoid nut, and would not let you into any of our bars.
Informative and oh so conspicuously woke....
