Holiday lights reflect off the the wet, brick pavement in this night scene of part of Tacoma's downtown shopping district. Taken in 1938, this photograph looks north on Broadway from south 15th Street. Shoppers stand out in silhouette against the brightly lit windows of the Sears, Roebuck & Co. department store. Two lines of streetcar tracks shine in the neon light.
