A follow up to my Military Road post from last week, this time about one of the more infamous people to visit the PNW way back in the day: George Brinton McClellan. Known primarily for his perceived failures during the Civil War, which earned him Lincoln’s contempt, “Little Mac” arrived in Washington just as it became its own territory separate from Oregon.
Will not look at Mt. Stuart the same way again!
Is there a story about the old Seattle Department of Highways building down on Spokane Street?
I never noticed it until this week- seems like an historic building in the shadow of another viaduct.
Thanks,
Julia
