The Rowdy and the Respectable: A Walking History of Georgetown
Please note: this tour is waiting list only, but signup is available on MOHAI’s website – link below.
This tour, led by Miriam Roskin, starts and ends at the east side of Oxbow Park, and explores the colorful past and vibrant present of one of Seattle’s oldest and most intriguing neighborhoods. Since 1851, when the Collins party’s arrival upended centuries of Duwamish tradition along a lazy oxbow river, Georgetown’s social history has been characterized by an almost constant tension between the rowdy and the respectable, evident even today in its buildings and streets.
$10 Members/$20 General Public
