Scope and content
This was how Tacoma's Stadium district appeared from the air in August of 1948. The First Presbyterian Church at 20 Tacoma Avenue South, marked by its bell tower, lay at the corner of Tacoma Avenue South and Division Avenue. The Big Bear Market (618-20 No. 1st St.) and Walker Chevrolet (633 Division) were in the narrow portion of the pie shaped wedge between Division Avenue and North 1st Street. Stadium High School, 111 No. E St., was in the upper left and the Shaffer Terminals lined Commencement Bay in the background. Photo ordered by Columbia Breweries.
