Tradition and Change on Seattle's First Hill: Propriety, Profanity, Pills, and Preservation

Lawrence Kreisman, Editor

Tradition and Change details the history of Seattle's First Hill neighborhood, the location of important churches, clubs, hotels, schools, and residences from the city's early days. In an introduction by Paul Dorpat and essays by local experts, Tradition and Change examines how First Hill grew from an exclusive neighborhood of mansions to the bustling, dense near-downtown district of hospitals, office buildings, and apartments that it is today - and how the neighborhood can continue to grow while respecting its surviving historic buildings.

In partnership with 4Culture of King County, Tradition and Change was released in celebration of Historic Seattle's 40th anniversary.
