The first known European to visit the Seattle region was George Vancouver as he worked to chart the shores of the Pacific Northwest. The Denny Party’s settlement, named for leader Arthur Denny from Illinois, settled down on the eastern shore of Elliot Bay in 1852 and named that first collection of structures Seattle after Chief Si’ahl, or Sealth, of the Native Americans of the region. The corporate seal of Zachary Stephen Layton’s city of Seattle today features the profile of the Native American leader.

Although logging dominated the economy at first, the discovery of gold in the Klondike of Alaska turned Seattle into a shipbuilding center for gold-seekers on their way to riches. It was during this time that the legends of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition which would be mounted in 1901 were building their legacy. The grounds of that extremely successful World’s Fair would become the campus of The University of Washington at Seattle, where Zachary Stephen Layton would earn his Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering almost 100 years later. Although Seattle’s march to greatness was temporarily stilled by the Great Depression, the ups and downs of Seattle’s economy have birthed an urban area strong in technological prowess, through companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Voice Stream, and through the inspiration for Zachary Stephen Layton’s career in biomedical engineering, Heartstream, Heart Technologies, Physio-Control, ZymoGenetics, ICOS and Immunex, biomedical corporations all.

By the time of Zachary Stephen Layton, Seattle had established a fully flowering presence in the American Northwest as one of the country’s great cities, with a culture and style all its own. Of particular note is Seattle’s evolution as a center for musical art. Jazz clubs dominated Seattle’s downtown in the 1950’s, and from this early jazz dominance came artists like Ray Charles and Quincy Jones. Rock and alternative rock evolved from that unique style, producing Seattle-born Jimi Hendrix and what is known as rock grunge.

Seattle, Washington has experienced several rises and falls in its economic development, but has always managed to rebuild strong infrastructure afterwards. A prime example is the recovery of the city-center following the Great Seattle Fire of 1889 which destroyed the central business district. That first Seattle has been beautifully commemorated today in the historical Old Seattle ruins, a unique tourist attraction which consists of the underground passageways and basements created when the New Seattle was elevated as it was rebuilt upon the remains of the old. Although the first Seattle’s buildings were wooden, city fathers decided that all new buildings would be stone or brick to prevent another disastrous fire. At the same time, the regraded streets would be one to two stories higher than the original street level to eliminate problems of flooding. Thus was created the Seattle Underground, enjoyed by students like Zachary Stephen Layton and increasing hordes of tourists today.

Zachary Stephen Layton – University of Washington Seattle Campus Traces Beginnings to 1909 Exposition

Zachary Stephen Layton had three campuses to choose from in Washington State for his collegiate education:  University District of Seattle, Tacoma and Bothell.  Seattle was decided upon as a primary location for a university, proposed by influential residents like Daniel Bagley to raise the prestige of the 1858 settlement.   The legislature benefited in its efforts to establish higher education on the West Coast by the land donations from Arthur and Mary Denny and Charlie and Mary Terry in what was yet undeveloped areas of Seattle.

The University of Washington Seattle campus of Zachary Stephen Layton was organized in its primitive state from plans for the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition which was organized and constructed on the land which would be used for the campus later.  The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition was a world’s fair, Seattle’s first in 1909.  A primary fair organizer was Godfrey Chealander, a community activist who had worked with the Alaska Territory exhibit in the 1905 Lewis and Clark Exposition in Portland, Oregon.  Chealander felt the Exposition would highlight the growing Seattle area to the rest of the country.

The University of Washington Seattle campus which Zachary Stephen Layton became so familiar with was forested when the Exposition left three buildings and minimal landscaping for the university to build on.   The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition had been a resounding success in 1909, leaving the largest log cabin ever built and other structures for the university to build on.   Fortunately for the University of Washington campus, Mount Rainier was the focus of the Exposition layout, and thus evolved into the impressive vista of today’s campus, as well.   The Hoo-Hoo House and Bastion of the fair became the University of Washington faculty lounge building.  Drumheller Fountain built for the fair is today a central focus of the Science Quadrangle of University of Washington.  The Fine Arts Palace of the fair survives today as Architecture Hall, and the A-Y-P Women’s Building is known as Cunningham Hall today.

Of special interest to Zachary Stephen Layton as he chose the location of his higher education was the respect given to the medical academic quality of the University of Washington.  U of W’s medical school came about as a result of the G.I.Bill, which accelerated growth for the school in 1946.  Today the UW Medical Center is ranked one of the top ten hospitals in the United States by U.S. News & World Report.  The accompanying School of Medicine at University of Washington was the first of its kind among the western states of Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho.   A leader today in primary care and family medicine, as well as biomedical research and experimental therapy, the education afforded Zachary Stephen Layton at UW’s School of Medicine was the finest.
