My intention was to capture this still life of a pear and a starbucks cup, the pear has a mustache making it seem like a male while the starbucks cup has the female, I captured them close together like they are intimate or flirting with one another.

Seattle's Chinatown may not be nearly as impressive as others in the United States (San Francisco, New York). It is worth talking about, though. This is the third iteration of Chinatown in Seattle. The first was on the waterfront in the 1850s when Chinese came over as dockworkers. White folks decided it was real estate they wanted, so pushed the Chinese away from the water about (to Second Avenue.
Real estate prices rose, downtown grew (namely Smith Tower was built roughly where Chinatown #2 was), and the Chinese moved, once again, to the current location along King Street and east of Fourth Avenue. The biggest change (in terms of appearance) in the 20th century probably came in the 1950s with the interstate system.
I-5 was build right through Chinatown and a lot of busineses were closed or destroyed for its construction.
From an ethnic point of view, the neighborhood changed, too. It's predominantly Chinese, but not exclusively so.
Currently, the CID is comprised of three neighborhoods: Chinatown, Japantown, and Little Saigon. They each underwent big events in the 20th century. In the 1940s, Japantown was upended with the interment of Japanese into prison camps during World War II. Little Saigon grew almost overnight at the end of the Vietnam War in the 1970s. Add in a Manilatown that existed for the Filipinos at Maynard and King in the 1930s (but no longer exists), and you have an Asian melting pot.
The majority of buildings we see in the CID today are from the turn of the 20th century. There are a few historic hotels (now serving other purposes); some great, cheap restaurants; and current local favorites like Uwajimaya (historically located elsewhere in the neighborhood, now the most popular Asian market in town, if not the region). There's a Chinatown gate across from Union Station and the train station, and a small neighborhood park with a night market where you can find Chinese playing table tennis during the day.
