S
eattle is often voted
the best city for one
reason or another, and
it's not hard to unders-
tand. The benign climate and
friendly people add to the
wondrous sights. It has
presented a friendly climate
to Jewish settlers. as well.
Seattle developed as a spot
for provisioning those off to
cash in on the Klondike gold
strike in Alaska. The Jews
began arriving in the 1860s,
becoming merchants outfit-
ting gold miners and prospec-
tors sailing from Seattle. One
early Jewish settler, Baily
Gatzert, arrived in 1869 and
later became mayor of
Seattle.
The state's oldest surviving
synagogue is Bikur Cholim-
Machzikay Hadath, an Or-
thodox shul founded in 1889
by Russian immigrants. The
largest is the Reform Temple
de Hirsch-Sinai, which will
celebrate its 100th birthday
in 1999, says one of its two
rabbis, Earl Starr. It has
1,500 families — and 500
students in the religious
school — in a complex, part of
which was finished in 1902.
Seattle boasts one of the
country's largest Sephardic
communities, with two
synagogues (Sephardi Bikur
Holim founded by con-
gregants from Turkey and
Ezra Bessaroth with
members from Rhodes).
But Seattre is about water.
JEWISH NEWS
From a window in one of the
Westin Hotel's circular towers
one can watch fleets of com-
mercial and pleasure boats
plying Puget Sound, or the
stunning vistas of the Olym-
pic and Cascade mountain
ranges; if you're really lucky,
the Sound and Mount Ranier.
Most downtown sights lie
within a clam's throw of the
hotel. No visitor to downtown
Seattle should miss Pike
Place Market. Hundreds of
stalls sell fresh produce —
often of a size that doesn't
seem possible — vividly col-
ored flowers and oceans of
fish. Here is arguably the best
smoked salmon you'll ever
taste; the vendors will also
ship it home as a gift. Several
sell fish so fresh it seems it
just jumped out of the water.
In fact, a salseperson will
take your selection, shout its
price to the cashier, and toss
it through the air to the wrap-
per! Artists and craftspersons
round out the picture.
Catch a trolley to Pioneer
Square, the preserved historic
district where the city began
during Gold Rush times, with
its restored brick and sand-
stone buildings.
Pioneer Place marks Seat-
tle's first permanent settle-
ment and the original Skid
Road, a road used to skid oil-
ed logs down from the hills to
Elliott Bay. While there, join
the 90-minute Underground
Tour to see the remains of the
