About this map

The industrial waterfront of Tacoma and the southern reaches of Vashon Island anchor this early 1960s survey of the central Puget Sound. The map documents a dense grid of schools and institutions including the Univ of Puget Sound, Stadium High Sch, and Wright Seminary near the heart of the city. To the north, the maritime character of the region is defined by the Dash Point Lighthouse and Browns Point Lighthouse, which flank the entrance to Commencement Bay.
