1961 Map of Tacoma South
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The southward expansion of Tacoma is visible here during the early 1960s, a period of significant suburban development defined by the arrival of the Tacoma Mall Shopping Center and the bustling operations at McChord Air Force Base. The urban grid gives way to residential pockets in South Tacoma, Hillsdale, and Fern Hill, while the Puyallup River corridor to the northeast remains an industrial and transit hub near Fife.
