I came across some more old photos and history on the Polynesia on a historical Seattle website.

Here two photos of the restaurant under construction. These types of construction shots are hard to come by, I can only think of one or two others.

Great details in the beams.

Next up a few aerial shots from the buildings across the way. You really get a sense of the scale of the piers from this vantage.

An early view from the adjacent pier 50.

Another shot of the Bounty docked beside the restaurant.

This is the Skagit Belle which was moved to Pier 51 and operated as another restaurant.

It sunk in place in 1965.
