Scope and content
This is part of downtown Tacoma's business district as pictured in February of 1938. This view of South 11th Street looks east toward the 11th St. Bridge. On the right can be seen the spire of the National Realty Building which housed the Puget Sound National Bank, the large Fisher Department Store, the Crystal Palace Market and Anderson's Public Market. The Crystal Palace Market rivaled Seattle's Pike Place Market with its wide selection of shops selling fresh produce, meat, fish and local dairy products. The Sylvan Hotel Apartments are at left in the foreground.
