Between two buildings at the old Seattle Brewing Co. is an old walkway that probably wouldn’t meet code today.

This building is in use today or has space to lease. I think it may have been the location of the offices for the old Seattle Brewing and Malting Co. Location: Georgetown, Seattle.

In an emergency, choice is probably not a good thing.

Tagging is a felony.

Signage for two other sections of buildings in the complex.

Part of the entryway into the Fred Marino building in Georgetown. Apparently at one time Fred Marino was the largest truck farmer in the Seattle area. This link will take you to a site where there is a history of Italian truck farmers in this area.

Another shot/attempt at the brick wall. Father and son out for a walk among the ruins. The son looks like he is not so sure about this adventure.

The Right Angle

I spent some time and a few bits of memory trying to get just the right angle on this wall that would conjure up the right optical experience. I don’t think this shot is the winner. I may be posting a few more of these attempts till I find the right one. My apologies in advance.

Smokestack

At the southern end of the old Rainier Brewery building is a tall, brick smokestack. On the image of the base of the smokestack you can see where ash was probably cleaned out. If this structure was damaged in the 2001 earthquake we had they sure did a good job restoring it.

Malt House

Adjacent to the Brew House in the Rainier Brewery is the old Malt House. The details amaze me; the fluted brick beneath the aging, metal sign, the sandstone-colored stone header above the upper window, the arched-brick pattern above the lower window. For a commercial building, which was internally designed to brew beer, it is amazing such energy was put into the outside details. Not something you would see today.

Brewery Pt. 2

Looking north, a large section of the old Rainier Brewery. Quite a large building. The other image is the southern most section of the brewery, which I would imagine, was damaged in the 2001 quake. The wall just looks like it was torn off. It is being held up by very large steel supports on the back side.

Two Doors

The carriage door on the left is cool. Very few of those doors in use. There is something about the ‘Subway’ pattern in the brick that …….does something. Every time I see that pattern in brick or tile I find it visually pleasing.
