Scope and content
ca. 1936. The Tacoma Hotel Annex dining room, designed as a duplicate of an English tavern. The Annex served as the Tacoma Hotel after the main building at 913 A St. was destroyed by fire in October of 1935. The grand opening for the new Tacoma Hotel was in January of 1936. Although not in the grand style of the original building, the new dining room was interesting in its resemblance to a tavern with a coved ceiling and faux stone walls. Round and rectangular tables with white cloths and wooden chairs cover the room. A basket of flowers rests on the floor. (T. Times 1/21/1936, pg. 8-9; TNT 1/21/1936, pg. 9)
