2. Under the Clock:
The Market's signature clock was erected during the Great Depression. The brass piggybank "Rachel" has been collecting donations for the Market Foundation's social programs since 1986. Walking west leads you past Seattle's famous "Flying Fish" mongers to the LaSalle Hotel. Once a bordello operated where Nellie Curtis' girls serviced the fleet, it now houses Market Spice and Tea, Maximilien's and the Place Pigalle.
