streets you ever saw, the finest system of boulevards and 
parks on the continent. 
You’ll sleep out here. The tired nerves will relax, and 
cares will vanish into the purpling mists of the gorgeous 
sunsets of Puget Sound. 
Leaving the Hotel Perry, you can in five minutes be amid 
splendors of modern civilization as typified by the canyon 
of Second Avenue, from among the skyscrapers of which 
reaches upward the forty-two story L. C. Smith Building, 
the tallest office structure in the world excepting one in 
New York City. In half an hour you can be enjoying surf 
bathing at Alki Beach, or be taking one of two-score trips on 
the waters of the Sound or Lake Washington. In an hour 
you can be in a fisherman’s paradise; in two hours amid 
the foothills of the near-by mountains; in three hours 
hunting wild game; in five hours in some remote mountain 
fastness where, perhaps, the foot of white man has never 
before trod. 
Seattle, the wonderful metropolis of the Pacific Northwest, 
beckons to you. The Hotel Perry will welcome you, when 
you come, with true western hospitality and will go far 
toward making your stay here enjoyable.
