Scope and content
Customer's copy of architectural drawing was made in March, 1953. United Pacific Insurance Company's new home office was constructed in 1954 and opened in January, 1955. Architectural drawing shown here was made by John Graham and Company, a Seattle firm. The five-story addition was estimated to cost $500,000. The insurance company would use the first three floors and basement and rent out the top two floors. Special glass would be utilized to reduce the sun's rays. The old Allyn Hotel and a building at 722 St. Helens would be demolished to make room for the new building. (TNT 4-5-53, C-14)
