Tacoma, Washington - also known as T-Town is the city where I live and yesterday my dad, little man and I went downtown for a walk and since we took lots of pictures, I decided to show some of them to you.
This is Union Station, it used to be a train station a long time ago - designed by the same architect that made the Central Station in NYC. It was in really bad shape and the county bought it for $1.00, restored it and nowadays Union Station is a court house, full of glass art from our local glass blower, Dale Chihully.
This is the Tacoma dome, the largest wooden dome in the world!
I love this triangle shaped building on the right of the picture... it's a little Italian cafe and florist.
This is the Tacoma Convention Center and the little train is called "Link" and it's free to ride!

Nice. Hope your Dad is having a great time.
ReplyDeleteThe highways are very american. Different to what I'm use to seeing here but I'm not sure I can explain how.
Thank you for the pictures, I love to see places people live. A fun day.
