<i>Job Carr cabin, Point Defiance Park, Tacoma, Washington, ca. 1919</i>
Photographer: Albert Henry Barnes (courtesy of the University of Washington)
Taken: Circa 1919
Caption: Job Carr cabin, Point Defiance Park, Tacoma, Washington, ca. 1919
Additional Description: "Built in 1865, it was disassembled and reconstructed in the park in 1918. On sleeve of negative: Oldest log cabin in NW at Pt. Defiance Park".
The cabin actually had two different locations in the park. Due to its poor condition, it was dissembled in 1988, and its constituent pieces were deemed unsuitable for constructing the replica cabin that is now the Job Carr Cabin Museum.
