Admiral Way Totem Pole

Restored in 2012-2014 and unveiled and dedicated on June 6, 2014 at the "Birthplace of Seattle" Log House Museum of the Southwest Seattle Historical Society.

This is a replica of a totem pole carved by natives of the coastal island region of British Columbia and brought to Belvedere View Point Park in 1930 by West Seattleite J.E. "Daddy" Standley.

Carved in 1966 from a Schmitz Park log by Boeing engineers Michael Morgan and Bob Fleischman, this totem pole stood at Belvedere View Point Park on Admiral Way from 1966 to 2006.

We thank Artech Fine Art Services, the National Society of the Colonial Dames, John Bennett, Seattle City Council member Tom Ramussen, Seattle Parks and Recreation, Alki Lumber and countless other donors and volunteers for making it possible for us to preserve and raise once again this West Seattle icon. . This historical marker was erected by Southwest Seattle Historical Society. It is in West Seattle in King County Washington
