Scope and content
Kaiser Dome. Another in a series of photographs of the new bulk cargo facility dubbed the "Kaiser Dome" newly erected on the Port of Tacoma's Pier 7 in 1967. Business at the Port was booming and this aluminum-covered storage dome, along with a dock extension and an enormous crane, was part of a $1,000,000+ expansion project. The dome would be used to store alumina, shipped from Queensland, Australia, under a contract with Kaiser Aluminum. Photograph ordered by Kaiser Engineers. (TNT 2-26-67, B-11, TNT 11-13-66, D-19)
