Colman Building, Historic office building in downtown Seattle, United States.
The Colman Building spans half a block along First Avenue, between Marion and Columbia Streets, rising six stories with red brick exterior and marble trim.
Initially constructed in 1889 and completed in 1906, the structure was commissioned by Scottish immigrant James Murray Colman, who contributed to Seattle's early development.
The building demonstrates architectural evolution, combining Victorian elements on the first floor with Chicago School design features in the upper stories.
The property maintains its function as an office building, offering commercial spaces in downtown Seattle near Pioneer Square and the waterfront district.
Local records suggest a ship's hull, the Windward, remains buried beneath the building's foundation after Colman salvaged the vessel at this location.
