The ''City of Seattle'' was a side-wheel driven steam-powered ferry built in 1888. This vessel was the first ferry to operate on Puget Sound. ''City of Seattle'' was also used in the San Francisco Bay area starting in 1913. The ferry was known as ''YFB54'' when owned by the U.S. navy in World War II, and as ''Magdalena'' during naval service and for a time following the war. The upper works of the ferry have been mounted on a barge hull, and are now in use as a houseboat in Sausalito, California. ==Design and construction== The ''City of Seattle'' was built in 1888 at Portland, Oregon by John Steffan and began regularly scheduled service on December 31, 1888.〔 The ferry had a wide lower deck, called the “driveway”, which carried wagons, horses and carts, as well as all passengers. On the upper deck there was a single pilot house, facing both ends, which was built around the smokestack.〔
