Commencement Bay and the industrial corridors of the Port of Tacoma anchor this southern Puget Sound landscape. The map details the complex maritime infrastructure along the Hylebos Waterway, Blair Waterway, and Sitcum Waterway, where the Puyallup River meets the sound. Beyond the heavy industry and the Sound Refining - Tacoma Refinery, the urban grid of Tacoma transitions into established neighborhoods such as Old Tacoma and the campus of the University of Puget Sound.
