A Thing of the Past

Unsafe as she was,
asbestos and all,


it's still a bit sad
to lose a bit of the city's history.

Colors of the Luzon

The Luzon's true colors


shine through

even as her walls
come crashing down.

Demise of the Luzon Building

Saturday,
a Tacoma landmark
was felled.

The Luzon Building
couldn't withstand
the ravages of time


or the greedy bites of a wrecking crane.

And for those of you who like the sound track,



and a glimpse of the action,



here you go.
