Bailey Gatzert (1829-1893), the brother-in-law of the prosperous merchants Louis, Abraham and Sigmund Schwabacher, supervised operations of this first facility, and later became a leader in the city's business and Jewish communities. He diversified the combined interests of the Schwabacher Family and himself into other businesses, including banking, warehousing, real estate and milling. Gatzert was especially important in early Seattle's efforts to develop utilities and transportation networks. He served as Mayor of Seattle (1875-1876), a City Council Member, and the second President of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. His wife, Babette, was prominent in the local social and philanthropic scene; they made their house a social center, and had the distinction of entertaining President Rutherford B. Hayes when he visited the city on 10/11/1880.
