Scope and content
In December of 1954, fifty-one years ago, the approach to the Tacoma Narrows Bridge on the Tacoma side was Olympic Boulevard which connected the bridge to 6th Avenue, which at that time was highway 16. Real estate development had barely begun on either side of the bridge. The Olympic mountains stand out in the distance beyond an unbroken line of trees. (Richards Studio Stock File. ) TPL-8406
