Scope and content
ca. 1969. 1969 Richards stock footage. View by air of the Southcenter Shopping Center in Tukwila. Located at the crossroads of two major interstate highways, I-5 and I-405, Southcenter provided shopping opportunities for residents of Seattle, Bellevue and Tacoma. Located about 12 miles south of Seattle and 17 miles north of Tacoma, the massive shopping center had additional room to expand. Already major businesses J.C. Penney, the Bon Marche and Frederick & Nelson were located in the center, albeit not under one roof. They were situated close enough, though, that customers would not have to walk far to reach the stores. Parking was not a problem as there were acres of free spots set aside for visitors. TPL-9307
