The Longshoremen's Hall is crowded on May 12, 1970, as members of the ILWU (International Longshore and Warehouse Union) congregated to install new members. Local 23 of the ILWU appeared open to both men and women and to varying races. It would eventually move to new quarters in Fife in 2002. Photograph ordered by the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, San Francisco.
