PIONEER SQUARE HISTORY The settlers who shaped the future of Seattle landed in Pioneer Square in 1852 after a hard winter on Alki Beach in West Seattle. Arthur Denny, “Doc” Maynard, and Henry Yesler, whose lumber mill was at the end of Skid Road, were among Seattle’s first and best-known entrepreneurs. In 1889 the Great Seattle Fire devastated Pioneer Square. Undaunted, Seattle’s 31,000 citizens elevated their downtown by a full story and replaced the destroyed neighborhood with beautiful Victorian Romanesque buildings.

WHERE IS PIONEER SQUARE? Pioneer Square is at the heart of Historic South Downtown and surrounded by: • the Retail Core to the north, • the Chinatown-International District to the east, • the Stadium District and SODO to the south, • and the Central Waterfront to the west. Pioneer Square is served by more modes of transit than anywhere else in the city. It’s easily accessible from Interstate 5 and 90, as well as Highway 99. Even the connection to Sea-Tac International Airport is direct and practical on the Sound Transit Link Light Rail. See the Getting Here section in this guide for more transportation options.

HISTORY, TOURS AND ATTRACTIONS Pioneer Square is the heart and soul of Seattle. The Denny Party landed in Pioneer Square in 1852 and named their settlement “Duwamps”. Fellow pioneer, Doc Maynard, convinced the settlers to rename the village “Seattle” to honor his friend and local tribal leader, Chief Sealth. As a result, the Town of Seattle was born.
