Historic Walking Tours of Tacoma Now Online
The Culture and Tourism Division of Tacoma’s Economic Development Department have published their Historic Tacoma Walking Tours online. These were previously available in hardcopy only, but are now available anywhere and anytime. There are three tours so far:
- Old City Hall Historic District
- Union Station Walking Tour
- Historic Hilltop
The tours include maps, historic photos, and site information. I’m impressed. Get outside your neighborhood and explore!

Mr. Smith, The Mayor in her State of the City address mentioned the need to make Tacoma a place more appealing to service folk from JBLM, and I believe the Tacoma Outreach Center Project would send the right signal.
