Scope and content
Aerial view on April 28, 1967, of the new Kaiser dome and 150-foot crane at the Port of Tacoma's Pier 7. The dome will be able to store some 50,000 tons of alumina from Australia under contract with Kaiser Aluminum. The $880,000 crane appears to dwarf the dome at 205 feet with boom raised. It has a 40-ton capacity 100 feet from the dock and is capable of reaching completely over a conventional ship. (TNT 11-13-66, D-19, TNT 2-15-67, A-1)
