Dome District

A very good piece in the Tacoma Daily Index on the ups and downs of the Dome District. Much on the minds of many is how the area will change when (if?) the LeMay Car Museum gets built. Looking at the area now, it's hard to believe there was once a thriving neighborhood, first devastated by the construction of I-5 in the 1960s and the remainder taken out by the Tacoma Dome in 1983. Hopefully the coming years will see a renewal of this area as a mixture of retail, residential, and light industrial uses.
