Aerial view of newly completed Pacific Lutheran University administration building taken in early October, 1960. Designed by architects Lea, Pearson & Richards, the two-story U-shaped modern structure was dedicated on October 14, 1960. It had 55,000 square feet of floor space. Initially called the Tacoma-Pierce Administration Building, it was later re-named after Philip E. Hauge, Dean of the University who had spent 45 years with the school. (TNT 10-12-60, C-10)

1969 Richards stock footage. Parkland neighborhood featuring Pacific Lutheran University, Garfield St. and Pacific Avenue as viewed by air in September of 1969. Fall has come to the Pacific Northwest as yards have browned and the trees other than the numerous firs will soon lose their leaves. Looking west from Pacific Ave near the bottom of the photograph is the neighborhood around Pacific Lutheran University. Piggly Wiggly has a supermarket which is at the intersection of Garfield and Pacific; its large letters are clearly visible from the air. To the grocery store's right is believed to be Parkland Lutheran Church & School with its playground behind it. Pacific Lutheran University's upper campus buildings, surrounded by tall firs, are clustered in the center of the picture. Portions of McChord AFB can hazily been seen at the top of the photograph.
