Trianon at 3rd and Wall St.
 
The Trianon Ballroom was one of several large dance clubs in the Seattle area which drew national Big Band talent. A two-manual Kimball theatre organ originally from the Olympic/Woodland Theatre was installed in 1931.
 
In 1946, Balcom & Vaughan moved the organ to the Maple Leaf Tavern in Renton.
 
After the Trianon closed, the wood dance floor went via barge to the Bayview Pavilion in Burton, Washington on Vashon Island.
