People wait to cross the street by the Kress store on Broadway after sampling the Downtown Merchants' Sidewalk Sale in July of 1970. Merchandise was brought out of the various Broadway stores and placed outside on sidewalks near stores' entrances. Racks and carts of clothing are being examined by shoppers. There is a 1964 Rambler parked near the crosswalk. The Kress store would close in 1972. Photograph ordered by the Downtown Tacoma Association, Inc.
