Why these designs
We only draw what's yours to wear: the public landmarks, the neighborhoods and the sayings — never a team, a school or a brand. Here's what's behind the Tacoma line.
- Tacoma Narrows Bridge · 1950 — Twin suspension towers; 1940 'Galloping Gertie' collapse is local lore.
- Mount Rainier — 'The Mountain is out.'
- Union Station copper dome · 1911 — Northern Pacific/Union Pacific; federal courthouse since 1991.
- Stadium High School · 1906 — Châteauesque landmark.
- Old City Hall clock tower · 1893 — Italianate.
- Point Defiance Park / Five Mile Drive / Pagoda · 1888 — ~700 acres; Sunday drives.
