In the digital age, there’s something magical about a place like the Washington State Archives. Deep in the vault of the Puget Sound Regional Branch in Bellevue, history is preserved the old-fashioned way.

Rod Koon made many visits to the archive's office, digging into the Port of Tacoma’s first century. The facility contains thousands of photos, negatives, slides and newspaper clippings that capture many key milestones of the Port’s history.
