The marker is on the building near Waterfall Garden Park in Seattle, Washington.
It reads:
"Site of the Smaller Fort to Protect
the Whites in the Indian War of 1855. A
Stockade stretched from here to the Main
Blockhouse at the Foot of Cherry Street.
This tablet was erected by the Washington University State
Historical Society. November 13, 1905."
This plaque apparently refers to the Puget Sound War...a series of skirmishes between Indians and settlers. Read more about the War at (
