Pioneer Square pergola, Cast iron pergola in Pioneer Square, Seattle, United States.

The Victorian-style structure extends 60 feet in length and rises 16 feet high, featuring ornate iron columns crowned with a glass roof.

Built in 1909 by architect Julian F. Everett, the pergola sheltered passengers waiting for cable cars on the James Street and Yesler Way lines.

The structure represents early 20th-century architectural design and municipal infrastructure, combining utility with decorative cast iron and glass elements.

Located at the intersection of 1st Avenue and Yesler Way, the pergola stands near the Pioneer Building and various historical landmarks.

The underground section contained a public restroom with Alaskan marble surfaces and brass fixtures, recording over 5,000 daily uses during peak periods.
