Scope and content
Centennial's fire is expected to be one of Tacoma's costliest fires. The only thing left standing is a 210 foot stack, as a reminder of the flour mill that once stood here. Their company records have been salvaged from the fire proof office vault, just slightly before the vault roof caved in. View of Centennial fire site one week after fire, photo ordered by Underwriter's Salvage Company of New York.
