The Georgetown Steam Plant was built in 1906 to provide power for Seattle's streetcars, the city of Georgetown, and the Seattle-Tacoma Railway. Although it's turbines were state-of-the art for their time, technology was advancing so quickly that the plant became outdated within a decade. It was soon relegated to secondary status and was used occasionally through the 1970s during droughts and to meet peak power demand.

Today, the nearly-complete plant is operated as a free museum and is open to the public the second Saturday of every month from 10am-2pm.

I'd stay here again.

"A decent enough place with a very accommodating staff. It' got a little noisy on the street but it's not a quiet neighborhood, so I wasn't expecting silence. My only real gripe is the lack of a in-room coffee maker. (There was complementary coffee in the office lobby.) I was in town for a class near-by. ..."
