Bank of Washington Plaza dedication. The Clan Gordon Pipe Band was a staple in various parades in the local area; on January 9, 1971, they marched to a different venue, up the escalator in the 24-story Bank of Washington Plaza tower. The building was dedicated after nearly two years of construction. Founded in 1955 with help from the Clan Gordon Lodge of Scottish Clans, and first limited to Scottish males, the Clan Gordon Pipe Band is still active in the 21st century and successful in spreading enjoyment of Scottish music to Northwesterners.
