Sea-Tac Mall. Construction has progressed rapidly since the June 3, 1974, groundbreaking for the $35,000,000 Sea-Tac Mall. Located on 72 acres at South 320th & Pacific Hwy. South, the regional shopping center in Federal Way is expected to be completed in August of 1975. Three department stores and 80 additional stores are anticipated for the air conditioned mall with free parking for 4000 cars. Ernest W. Hahn, Inc. of Hawthorne, CA, is the general contractor. Two new streets are to be created on the site's perimeter, South 324th on the south and 23rd Ave. on the east. Pacific Hwy. South is to be widened on the east side. Also widened will be South 320th St. In addition, two manmade lakes will be created to hold surface water during heavy rains. The water will be released in controlled storm sewers.
