Title
Madison Park fountain, ca. 1910
Description

Madison Park was first developed by John McGilvra who served as the Attorney General for Washington Territory and owned much of the land in the area. The modern-day Madison Street follows that path that McGilvra created to lead from downtown to his Madison Park property at Laurelshade. This route was serviced by the Madison St. cable car line. To entice Seattleites to make the journey from the city, the area featured a number of amusements including a theatre, baseball park and boat rides. The park was turned over to the Parks department in 1922.
