The Burien area was discovered by Mike Kelly in [[1870]], when he walked up a hill from the South Seattle area. When he emerged from the trees he spoke the words, "This is truly a sunny dale." Still today, the Burien area is called Sunnydale. He claimed a 160 acre plot of land and
Ten years later, Gottlieb Von Boorian, a German immigrant, arrived in Sunnydale. At this point, the community was only trails and small houses. There were no roads or buildings. Von Borrian built a cabin on the southeast corner of [[Lake Burien]] and also was said to have formed the community into a town bearing his name. ''(It has been misspelled over the years.)'' A real estate office was built and soon more people began pouring in to Burien.
