[3] According to Paul Dorpat, the first tenant of Pier 1 was the Luckenback/Luckenbach Steamship Co. (he gives both spellings) for their intercoastal service.

[4] In 1917, Pier 1 was owned by the Northern Pacific Railway, and operated bv the Canadian Pacific Steamship Company, the Pacific-Alaska Navigation Co., and the Port Angeles Transportation Co, and was also the headquarters of the port warden.

Twenty (20) railway cars could be loaded on the racks that were on the pier, which was equipped with adjustable slips.

The depth of water at Pier 1 was 40 feet (12 m) at low tide.

[2] In the late 1940s, Alaska Steamship Co. moved to Pier 42 and Nippon Yusen Kaisha used this pier until September 17, 1960 as port of call for the Hikawa Maru, the only Japanese passenger ship to survive the WWII.
