History of Tacoma's architecture on display
“From Ruins to Renaissance: The Architecture of Downtown Tacoma” tells the story of the city’s architecture from its founding 125 years ago to today.
In a small space at the Tacoma Historical Society’s Exhibit Center, visitors walk through the early days of boom and bust, the post-Civil War decline, the mixed effects of urban renewal and the more-recent investments of public and private money.
It also displays several artifacts from buildings that have been lost.
The Exhibit Center is at 747 Broadway and is open between noon and 5 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. The exhibit continues through the end of the year.
