Question: Who am I?
Editor's note: The Tuk-
wila Historical Society each
month will share an artifact
from its collection, as part
of its exploration of Tuk-
wila's history, its story. The
column is written by Louise
Jones -Brown, director of the
Tukwila Heritage and Cul-
tural Center.
This photo is known
as "lady in the hat." You
can see the major land-
marks that identify the
location. The Interurban
Railway "Garden Station"
was opened in 1904 and is
seen above her left shoul-
der. Hull's Grocery is on
the right side of the picture,
which is currently the loca-
tion of Galliano's Cucina
at Interurban Avenue and
58th Avenue South. The
second floor of Hull's Gro-
cery was Tukwila City Hall
1908-1947.
Our challenge is to find
someone who knows our
"Lady." If you know who
she is, contact the Tukwila
She's the'lady in the hat' but little else is known about her.

The Tukwila Historical
Society welcomes residents
to search for older pictures
or artifacts of Tukwila and
surrounding area that they
would like to share. We have
the ability to scan or copy
photos and would consider
items for donation or dis-
play at the Tukwila Heritage
and Cultural Center.
Remember that our next
major fundraising event
is being held on Saturday,
May 19 at the Foster Golf
Complex. This event is to
honor the memory of our
past member and longtime
Tukwila resident; Louise M.
Strander.
