Speaker: Jan Johnson, Owner and Preservationist

The historic Panama Hotel was built in 1910 by Sabro Ozasa, a Japanese architect and graduate of the University of Washington. Through the years it has served as a home for generations of Japanese immigrants, Alaskan fishermen, and International travelers. The building houses the only remaining Japanese Bathhouse (Sento) left intact in the United States. These facilities served generations of Seattle’s Japanese community until closing its doors in 1950, and has remained preserved as it was to this day.
