Walk Tacoma - On the Waterfront

It’s time for the next installment of Walk Tacoma, this time, on the waterfront. And if the forecast holds, it should be a beautiful day for it (66 and mostly sunny, as we write this).

Free Walk Event Along Tacoma’s Waterfront

Tacoma, Wash. – On Wednesday, May 1, 2013, Downtown On the Go will be holding a free Waterfront Walk from noon – 1:00 p.m. led by Joseph Govednik, Curator of Collections with the Foss Waterway Seaport. The walk, sponsored by TrueBlue, Inc., will highlight the history and current development of Tacoma’s waterfront along a 2 mile walking route starting at the Murray Morgan Bridge at 11th & A Street. Participants will experience great views from the Murray Morgan Bridge, enjoy parks along the waterfront, and tour the Foss Waterway Seaport Museum. There is no need to pre-register for the event, simply join us at the meeting spot.

The Waterfront Walk is part of Downtown On the Go’s 2013 Walk Tacoma eight-event series sponsored by Franciscan Health System. Free walking maps of the routes are available at Downtown On the Go, many downtown businesses, or by contacting Meagan Kula, Downtown On the Go Coordinator, at 253-682-1734 or dotg@tacomachamber.org.
