Terminal Sales Building
In 1924,
KJR moved into the ten-story Terminal Sales Building at 1932 First
Avenue in Belltown (left). Opened in 1923, the building served as a sales and
display center for distributors doing business with nearby retailers
like Frederick and Nelson and the Bon Marché. The imposing gothic
building is now on the National Register of Historic Places.
The
KJR antenna was suspended between the Terminal Sales Building and the
St. Regis Hotel (right), located on the opposite side of the block.
(This photo of the St. Regis predates KJR.)
