Progress photograph. Excavation work continues on the site chosen for the (National) Bank of Washington Plaza in the spring of 1969. Rhine Co. trucks were employed to carry away mounds of dirt as pictured above with a bulldozer further adding to the refuse. It would take nearly two years from the date of groundbreaking, February 13, 1969, for completion of the 22-story building. Total cost was approximately $12,000,000. Photograph ordered by Donald Drake Construction, Portland.
