Description: Detail of terracotta work, Eagles Auditorium Building, Seattle, Washington, now Kreielsheimer Place, home to ACT (A Contemporary Theater), with two stages and a cabaret (also 44 apartments). Also known as Eagles Temple and as the Senator Hotel, the elaborately terracotta-covered building (designed by the Henry Bittman firm) is on the National Register of Historic Places, ID #83003338. The building was the Aerie No. 1 of the Fraternal Order of Eagles (which was founded in Seattle); it was for many years a major concert venue; and it was where Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke November 10, 1961 on his only visit to Seattle.
