Scope and content
ca. 1934. This is part of the lobby of the grand Tacoma Hotel circa 1934. The spacious foyer had several chairs and benches resting against the enormous pillars for guests taking their ease. Of note are the fancy "sea horses" at tops of the pillars and a large clock attached to the ceiling beams. A portion of a dining area is visible further down the lobby. The Tacoma Hotel was reduced to ruins by a massive fire on October 17, 1935. TPL-219
