Grand opening of bank. August 25, 1969, saw the grand opening of the Sixth Avenue branch of the Bank of Tacoma. Bank officials including Chrm. of the Board, Thomas Mallon (third from right) , president David J. Williams (extreme r), and Sixth Ave. branch manager James K. Jones (second from left) were present to snip the bright red ribbon. In late May, 1969, Seattle-First National Bank had announced plans to join the Tacoma business community by buying the Bank of Tacoma's assets and liabilities including the main office and three branches. The changeover was not expected to be completed until January of 1970. The Bank of Tacoma's total assets were more than 21 million dollars with deposits of more than 17 million.
