ONE OF MANY THRIVING INDUSTRl
Seattle Construction
Firm Takes Part In
Development of City

Commencing business in 1909,
the firm Of A. w. Quist Company
was organized by A. w. Quist and
A. s. Downey, for the purpose OF
carrying on building construction
and general contracting work.
Since that time. their operations
have placed them in touch with
the development of Seattle, and
many of the large buildings now
standing in the City of Seattle
have been erected by them.
Starting with the construction
of the Industrial building of the
Seattle Ice Company. and O. b.
Williams building in the district
on First Avenue South. their oper-
atoms grew, and gradually spread
into the entire Northwest terri
tory. British Columbia and
Alaska.
Modern construction in large
cities called for buildings which
are fireproof throughout
The Industrial developments
also. while seeking TO construct
their buildings absolutely fire
proof, do not overlook the artistic
treatment.
During the war. A. W. Quist
Company was called upon by the
Navy Department to erect large
nine-story warehouse at the Puget
Sound Navy Yard. Brenerton,
Washington. to take care Of the
expanding work which was being
carried on by the Yard.
When The United States Hous-
ing Corporation contemplated con-
structing Housing facilities for
the men at Bremerton, the same
firm was called in to construct
the large Hotel Building. the
Apartment Houses, and $50 r,si-
dences. adjacent to the Navy
Yard, and in the city of Bren-
erton.
The government also contracted
with the same firm for the COZ
struction of Barracks, Hospitals,
and otherebuildings, in connection
with the Puget Sound Coast De.
lenses, to take care of the War
Requirements there.
BY personal supervision, and
close study of conditions surround
ing their work. the firm of A. W.
Quist Company has followed along
with the development of Seattle,
and today have their place among
the foremost building contractors
of the Pacific Northwest.
