Hmmmm, I wonder just what I might find at the upcoming Landmark Tacoma Home estate sale in the Historic North End.….Who knows? After all, the house was built the same year Washington became a state and was the center of political, civic, suffragist and social activity for decades since the late 1800s. Launching August 8-9, by appointment. Details coming soon.
