A Stroll Through History

Discovering Pioneer Square

Pioneer Square is Seattle’s original neighborhood, a living showcase of the city’s spirit and charm dating back to the mid-1800s. After the dramatic Great Fire of 1889, the area sprang back to life with gorgeous brick-and-stone buildings in the rich Romanesque style, creating the photo-worthy streets you see today. Dive into history on the fascinating Underground Tour, where guides share tales from beneath the city’s old street level. If you’re drawn to art, you’ll love the neighborhood’s up-and-coming galleries and the vibrant First Thursday Art Walk. Plus, a tempting array of local cafés and restaurants invites you to experience Seattle’s flavors against a truly authentic backdrop.
