Scope and content
ca. 1969. This "artistically modified" view of downtown Tacoma was created for the Downtown Tacoma Association in 1969. Along with the Bank of Washington building at 1201-23 Pacific Avenue, it shows a second high-rise building in the 1100 block of Pacific and numerous parking structures on Market and on the south end of Broadway. The building at the corner of 11th and pacific is at least twice the height of the Pacific First Federal building that was built on that site. Only the Washington Plaza (now Wells Fargo Plaza), which was completed in January of 1971, was built more or less as visualized.
