Satellite view from google maps. Red marker indicates previous location which could not be safely access. Orange circle shows correct location with orange arrows showing a path to reach the location.

Streetview showing sidewalk along the road and ruins beyond.


Not sure why NIA ops decided to remove this one, I attached 2 photos to the location edit report which I thought showed clearly enough that the location could be safely accessed. There is a sidewalk along the road here that extends from Grady Way/City Hall at the bottom of the hill all the way to the intersection with Puget Drive further up the hill so this can be safely accessed via sidewalk from north or south.

The newer plaque here is stop 7 on the Renton History Lives Here self-guided walking tour
