Old Town Business District

Known as the birthplace of Tacoma, it’s no wonder that pioneer Job Carr decided to build his original log cabin in present-day Old Town Park, with its peaceful setting and spectacular views of Commencement Bay. The original charm of Old Town persists among local merchants who can meet your needs for flowers, jewelry and unique gifts. There is a host of dining experiences to choose from, including Tacoma’s oldest operating saloon, The Spar, to seafood restaurants along the waterfront.
