Tacoma Mall West expansion. Work progresses on the west side expansion of the Tacoma Mall Shopping Center in September of 1972. 25 more stores would be added to the southend shopping center, increasing the size of the mall by some 80,000 square feet. Prior to this construction, the Tacoma Mall had 85 stores. In addition, Nordstrom (then known as Nordstrom Best) would be adding a second floor of 17,000 square feet, to feature lingerie, junior wear and ready-to-wear fashions. Photograph ordered by Rushforth Construction Co., contractors of the Tacoma Mall West expansion project. (TNT 9-2-71, A-1- article on expansion)
