Chinatown-International District & Seattle's Asian-American Heritage

Seattle's Chinatown-International District (CID — the historically Asian-American neighbourhood south of downtown Seattle) is one of the oldest and most diverse Asian-American communities in the United States, home to Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Vietnamese, Korean, and Southeast Asian communities whose history in Seattle extends back to the Chinese labourers who built the transcontinental railroad in the 1860s-1880s.
