Fact text

  • Kenmore Air Harbor is the largest seaplane-only passenger facility of its kind in the entire United States.
  • During Prohibition, Kenmore had over 30 restaurants, dance halls, bars, and clubs crammed into a three-block area, basically the Vegas strip of Jazz Age Seattle.
  • One Kenmore speakeasy was literally called 'The Blind Pig', which was already well-known slang for speakeasy, so it was hiding in plain sight.
  • A rival Kenmore saloon was so rowdy with fistfights it earned the nickname 'The Bucket of Blood.'
  • A building in downtown Kenmore is actually a Seattle World's Fair artifact, physically moved from Seattle Center after the fair ended in 1962.
