A fact from Holyoke Building appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 November 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Holyoke Building at the corner of First Avenue and Spring Streets in Downtown Seattle was the first permanent building to be completed after the Great Seattle fire of June 6, 1889?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/November.

... File:Seattle Mail and Herald, v. 7, no. 8, Jan. 2, 1904 - DPLA - 9ff35df2176155219eb16372eeb0fb40 (page 10).jpg is a decent article from 1904 about the building, mostly focused on its tenants, especially musicians. - Jmabel | Talk 21:26, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Joe. That's quite a roster of names, I'll have to delve through and see if any of them have Wikipedia articles or are otherwise notable. I was also unaware that the top floor was added to the plans specifically for the music conservatory, making this building important to Seattle's music scene from the very start. I'll add it to my to do list for after the holidays. - Publichall (talk) 04:05, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
