Historical Information about TOPS Seward:
TOPS is housed in the historic Seward School in Seattle's Eastlake neighborhood.
The facility consists of three buildings—the original 1893 building housing the cafeteria and some elementary classrooms; the wood-frame elementary building, opened in 1905; and the brick middle school building, added in 1917.
Originally named the Denny-Fuhrman school in 1893, the building was renamed in 1905 after William H. Seward, the Secretary of State under Andrew Johnson, best known for purchasing Alaska from Russia in 1867. In 1997-1998, the school underwent a major $20 million renovation, adding a new gym with a performance stage; a Learning Resource Center housing the library, conference area, offices, and computer labs; and state-of-the-art wiring throughout the school. The building is now a designated Seattle landmark. http://www.historylink.org/essays/output.cfm?file_id=3244
