ca. 1926. William L. Case, son of "Bill" (William T.) Case, poses on tugboat Foss #12. For many years, #12 served the city of Tacoma as a fireboat. It was skippered for much of that time by the elder Case. In 1914, #12 was the first vessel designed and built for Foss exclusively for towing. It was built primarily for turning the Seattle-Tacoma passenger steamers in the City Waterway and designed so that one man, the captain, could run the engine, pilot the boat and tend the lines. Arthur Foss made a proposal to the city that they contract with Foss for the services of a fireboat. The agreement was made at a cost to the city of $2993 a year ($8.20 a day.) Foss #12 was refitted with a powerful pump that could throw 1200 gallons of water per minute at a pressure of 400 pounds per square inch. Two men were stationed on the tug at all times and it could reach any harbor fire within 6 minutes of receiving a call. The tug was instrumental in controlling several potentially disastrous waterfront fires. (photograph courtesy of the William T. Case collection) (Foss: A Living Legend" by Bruce Johnson and Mike Skalley)

ca. 1926. This is an undated architectural drawing of a "Proposed Doctors Office Building on Saint Helens Avenue," designed by Sutton, Whitney & Dugan, Tacoma architects. It is apparently an early design proposal for the (Rhodes) Medical Arts Building which was built at 747 Market Street in 1930. The Sutton, Whitney & Dugan drawing shows a shorter building than the one finally constructed but it was apparently also to be made of stone. John Graham, Sr. and associate architects Heath, Gove & Bell were eventually chosen as the architects for the Medical Arts Building which was actually built. The Medical Arts Building was purchased by the City of Tacoma in 1977 for use as the city hall, and was renamed the Tacoma Municipal Building in 1981. (Copy of drawing made on November 10, 1926.)
