Lakewood Images

| Copy of aerial view of Lakewood business district, including the Lakewood Center and Villa Plaza Shopping Center, ca. the early 1960's. The Lakewood Center, among the first of the nation's one-stop shopping centers, is at bottom center. It is bordered by Bridgeport Way (curving long road on left), Gravelly Lake Dr. and Mt. Tacoma Dr. Towards the center of the photograph is the massive Villa Plaza Shopping Center, built in 1957 on the site of the former 200-acre Visitation Villa. The Villa Plaza constantly promoted their 4000 car parking lot, which may have attracted many shoppers eagerly looking for the convenience of free, available parking. Photograph ordered by the Bank of Tacoma. |
