Exit133.com is about Tacoma, Washington. It's about Real Estate, Politics, the Arts, Urban Development, and the interests of our readers.
Exit133, in its current form, was launched in May 2005 by Derek Young. Why? Because Derek saw a lot of good things happening in Tacoma that weren't getting any attention. The regional press ignored the city. The local press wasn't seeing what he was seeing. He worked 30 miles away and few of his co-workers wouldn't come down to Tacoma because ... it's Tacoma. Now, more than three years later, we're having a lot of fun and people are noticing.
There are many writers, editors, and contributors that help make Exit133 possible. To us, it's the commenters that really make this place special. Without them, we'd just be typing into oblivion and wondering if anybody cared.
Our office is called Suite133. It's a co-working space in downtown Tacoma that is home to several small businesses and is the satellite office for a few larger ones. It seems so Tacoma. A former brothel becomes an architecture firm. An architecture office becomes a center for synergistic new media something-such.
Finally, a special THANK YOU to our Supporters like Evergreen Rowing for making Exit133 possible. Thank you.
