Washington, Ballard Historical Society Historical Markers

A bank that collapsed amid scandal. Several saloons that aggressively competed for thirsty mariners. A laundry that was a reputed speakeasy, with a brothel upstairs. Those and other stories are told in a series of 12" X 16" markers placed on more than two dozen buildings along Ballard Avenue Northwest, once the main street of the City of Ballard (now a part of Seattle) and a National Historic Landmark District.
