Scope and content
Safeway Store, new building at Sixth and Pine. The photograph shows a side view of the modest Art Deco style concrete store, featuring the new paving at Sixth and Pine. The grocery store had its Grand Opening on October 10, 1941. It replaced the oldest Safeway in Tacoma, located at 6th Ave and Fife. A sharp "jog" in the road at 6th and Pine had been straightened out and the new pavement is highlighted in this photograph. (T. Times 10/9/1941, pg. 13)
