Remembering a President - Images

On this day of presidential mourning and remembrance I’ve been asked about my photos of the JFK funeral.  They’ve been offline for a bit.  I’ve put them back up.  The original post and images are through the link.

    I would love to see if there is any tile work down there, before they flood it. A few months ago I inquired with the city about having a look, no response so far. Let me know if you hear anything about a photo tour…

    Regarding the tile work, if you look at the article online, on the right there is a picture of the tile work that still exists.

    Awesome story. Thanks for the post, Whitney.

    Awesome story! I would love to see more on Tacoma’s underground history.

    great story, but I think the rebuilt baths would bring more business than a green building.
    Does anyone know how the plans of the building look? Is the parking on street level again? Say it isn’t so.

    Nothing wrong with LEED Platinum, but I seriously think those baths could be a waaaaaaay awesome attraction in downtown. Seriously, how many cities in the US have a functioning, publicly-accessible 19th century Turkish Bath?
    Much less an underground one.

    Skip LEED platinum, give me the baths.
    Hell, the city wants tourism, why flood a great idea?
