Arthur Armstrong Denny (June 20, 1822 – January 9, 1899) was one of the founders of
Seattle, Washington, the acknowledged leader of the pioneer
Denny Party, and later the city's wealthiest citizen and a 9-term member of the
territorial legislature. Seattle's former Denny Hill was named after him; it was flattened in a series of regrading projects and its former site is now known as the
Denny Regrade. The city's Denny Way, however, is named not after Arthur Denny, but after his younger brother
David Denny.
